Taketora Ankle Supporter, Size L, 1 Piece

AI Description

The product in the image is the Sofra Ulfer® Eight ankle brace provided by Take Tora Co., Ltd.

This product is designed with an application of the Figure Eight taping technique to enhance ankle stability and reduce the sway of the talus (kyokotsu), thereby minimizing center of gravity shifts during walking.

Key Features and Usage

Figure Eight Effect: By wrapping the ankle in a figure-eight pattern, it provides firm fixation and compression.

Easy to Put On and Take Off: The entire surface is made of hook-and-loop fasteners (Velcro), allowing for easy attachment to either the left or right foot.
Discreet Thin Design: The fabric is thin, making it possible to wear shoes over the brace.

Wearing Instructions (Example for the Right Foot)
Alignment: Place your foot on the center of the band with the side marked skin side facing up, and the marking positioned towards the little toe side of your foot.

Wrap in a Figure Eight: Cross both ends of the band over the top of your foot while gently stretching them, and wrap them around your ankle in a figure eight pattern.

Fasten: Cross the inner band (arch side) under the outer band, cross them in the middle of the instep, and secure with the hook-and-loop fasteners.

Precautions
Avoid Overtightening: Overtightening can cause circulatory or skin problems, so adjust with moderate pressure.

Use During Sleep: It is generally advised to avoid using the brace while sleeping, as it is difficult to notice any abnormalities.
Washing Instructions: Wash in water below 40°C using a neutral detergent on a gentle cycle or by hand. It is recommended to wash with the hook-and-loop fasteners closed.
