The Achilles Tendon Support relieves pain and discomfort from Achilles tendonitis, posterior heel pain and plantar heel pain.
The Achilles Tendon Support from Pro-Tec gently compresses the Achilles tendon to provide
support and alleviate tendon pain. The neoprene strap, which is applied just above the
ankle bone, includes a firm and comfortable pressure pad which applies focused
compression to the Achilles tendon. The elastic strap wraps under the heel,
providing consistent lift to the heel. Made from UBL neoprene, felt, Cool Max
Mesh, elastic and Velcro. Latex free.
Indications - The Achilles Tendon Support from Pro-Tec is used
in the treatment of
Achilles tendonitis,

calcaneal bursitis,
heel pain,
plantar
fasciitis,
heel
spur syndrome and
Baxter's nerve entrapement.
 Foot
Care Tip! Achilles tendonitis is significantly affected by
raising or lowering your heel. Wearing low heeled shoes or going barefoot
will increase the amount of mechanical load applied by the calf muscles to the
Achilles tendon. Be sure that a part of your treatment plan for Achilles
tendonitis is to avoid going barefoot or wearing low heeled shoes. The use
of a heel lift in conjunction with The Achilles Tendon Support can cut your healing
time in half. Also, be sure to ice the Achilles tendon before and after exercise.

"Due to a strain Achilles tendon I was unable to continue my running. I was training for a 5K obstacle course. By the time I found your site, ordered and received the strap it was only a few days before the event. Not one to quit, even if I had to walk through the entire course, I would go and finish. I wore the Achilles Tendon Strap for one day before and that was at work. No running just walking.
On the day of the event I strapped it on and off I went. I made it through the entire 5K course. I ran and walked. I walked not because of pain but because of my conditioning and not being able to run earlier. I went through mud, waist deep water, up and over obstacles, through tires. It was a true obstacle course. I did not have one twinge of pain! I was amazed!! I swear by this Achilles Tendon Strap.
