Elastic Achilles tendon support with anatomically shaped pads
Protect.Achi is a support for compression of the Achilles tendon. It includes a breathable, elastic and light material, and anatomically-shaped knit.
The anatomically-shaped silicon pads enable an effective pressure relief and stabilization. The support has an increased comfort by using softer material in the flexion area.
Protect.Achi is suitable for all indications in which soft tissue compression with local pressure pad(s) on the Achilles tendon is necessary, such as:
- Acute and chronic inflammation of the Achilles tendon
- Posttraumatic and postoperative inflammation
- Achillodynia
- Achillobursitis
Protect.Achi relieves pain and dissipates swelling (oedema, haematoma) via integrated silicon pads (massage effect). It enables stabilisation and relief on the joint elicited via compressive knitted fabric. The compressive knitted fabric can improve proprioception. The improvement in proprioception supports the body’s own guidance and stabilizes the joint.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
– Physiological 3D dual tension knitted fabric. Compression class I.
-Due to the contoured, 3D dual tension knit, Constructed to conform to the natural shape of the ankle, so the ankle is still mobile, but gets the stability it needs.
-The soft brace relieves pain, distributes pressure uniformly to reduce impact, and produces a soothing massage effect to prevent fluid build-up.
– Visco-elastic profiled inserts in the para-achilles area.
– For relieving pressure on the achilles tendon and for intermittent massage.
–
– Pressure-reducing material edge.
-The support fits optimally even in the instep. Extra cushioning on the Achilles and heels make the brace comfortable all day, while the breathable material prevents moisture build-up.
- Made in Germany with the highest manufacturing standards to ensure superior quality.

Measure the circumference of your ankle at the narrowest point, right above your ankle bones/joints.
Make sure that the measure tape is not too loose or too tight.
If your measurements are close to different size, choose the different size (bigger).
