Medi Achimed Knit Ankle Support for Men & Women (Sand) Size IV

Now with new medi comfort Knit fabric!
The Achimed is an anatomically tailored Achilles tendon support with integrated silicone support cushions. The Clima Comfort fabric is highly elastic, breathable and moisture-wicking and includes a special Comfort Zone knitted into the instep portion to prevent constriction and pressure areas. The Clima Fresh treatment helps ensure odor-free performance. Included are 2 silicone heel wedges to provide tension relief.

The compressive fabric and silicone inserts have a massaging effect which promotes circulation and therefore assists with swelling.
Clima Comfort releases moisture and regulates skin temperature control.
Clima Fresh technology inhibits bacteria growth and unpleasant smelling odors.

Features and Benefits:
Anatomic fit and integrated silicone pads for comfort and support
Elastic, breathable fabric
Specially knitted Comfort Zone over the instep prevents constriction and pressure areas.

Indications:
Acute and chronic inflammation of the Achilles tendon
Post-traumatic and post-op inflammation
Achillodynia
Achillobursitis

How does it work?
Mode of action Achimed causes a massaging effect, which supports perfusion, by interacting with compressive knitted fabric and the two integrated silicon inlays. This effect furthers the decline in swellings and bruises. Irritation and pain are relieved. Simultaneously, the muscular control and the inherent stabilization of the ankle joint improve. Supports cause the greatest effect during physical exercise.

IMPORTANT:
Always wear both supports simultaneously in your shoes to ensure the same leg length. Once the acute symptoms subside, the supports should be used alternately (e.g., every 2 hours) as you see fit and not worn continously to acclimate the tendon to normal loads. Please take care that trained staff instruct you when putting on the support for the 1st time.
