BioSkin Trilok Ankle Brace, Medium
The Trilok is a versatile Ankle Brace that provides protection, support, and pain relief from multiple foot and ankle injuries. The TriLok provides protection and support to injured ligaments to prevent further injury and reduce pain after an ankle sprain. The FootLok Strap acts as an external ligament, using leverage to protect the weak or vulnerable ligaments around your ankle. The FootLok strap wraps around your midfoot and then attaches to the outside of your ankle. You can adjust the level of support by pulling up harder on the FootLok strap. Included in the package: TrilLok Undersleeve, Stirrup Strap, FootLok Strap. US Patent Number: 9,364,363
Overview
Compression at the Core
Compression enhances your body’s circulatory processes. Blood flow is increased and unwanted fluid is removed more efficiently because of the external pressure provided by compression.
That’s why, at the TriLok’s core, we use Ultima material to create a compressive base sleeve. BioSkin’s patented Ultima material is breathable, thin, and delivers medical-grade compression where it matters most. The compressive base sleeve of the TriLok gives you a jumpstart on recovery.
Ankle Sprains
The TriLok supports ankles like no other brace can. The patented FootLok strap acts an external ligament, using leverage to protect the weak or vulnerable ligaments around your ankle. The FootLok wraps around your midfoot and then attaches to the outside of your ankle. You can adjust the level of support by pulling up harder on the FootLok strap. The TriLok also includes stirrup straps to increase the stability even further.
PTTD - Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction
The TriLok offers an innovative approach to relieving the pain associated with posterior tibial tendon dysfunction, or PTTD. The key to the TriLok’s effectiveness is the patented, white FootLok strap. This strap mimics the posterior tibialis, the muscle/tendon structure responsible for lifting the arch of the foot. When the posterior tibialis becomes weak or damaged, it loses its ability to lift the arch properly and allows the foot to begin to collapse. The TriLok’s FootLok lifts the arch and relieves pain by correcting over-pronation and restoring the foot to its natural position.
Plantar Fasciitis
The Plantar Fascia is a thick, fibrous band that connects the heel to the front of the foot and provides support and spring to the arch. Prolonged standing, walking, or running can overstress the plantar fascia and lead to pain, particularly in the heel. The TriLok alleviates plantar fasciitis pain by lifting the arch and supporting the plantar fascia. The FootLok strap wraps around the midfoot and allows you the ability to deliver adjustable support, by pulling up on the plantar fascia. The TriLok may also be used as a light night splint to hold the foot in dorsi-flexion while you sleep.
