    Relieve the debilitating pain caused by plantar fasciitis and PTTD. The TriLok Ankle Brace also provides unrivaled protection against ankle sprains. 

    Ankle Sprains

    The TriLok provides protection and support to injured ligaments to prevent further injury and reduce pain after a 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. The TriLok also includes stirrup straps to increase the stability even further.

    Plantar Fasciitis

    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.

    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. The TriLok’s FootLok strap lifts the arch and relieves pain by correcting over-pronation and restoring the foot to its natural position.

    Peroneal Tendonitis

    The TriLok's FootLok strap mimics the function of the peroneal tendons, attaching to the midfoot and lifting the outside edge of the foot. As the FootLok strap lifts the outside of the foot, it offloads the peroneal tendons, allowing them to heal and regain their ability to support and protect the ankle.

    Included in the package: TriLok Undersleeve, Stirrup Strap, FootLok Strap

    What is an ankle brace or ankle support?

    An ankle brace is used to provide stability and support to the ankle. It can be used as a preventative measure such as protection during sport or to treat injuries. Many braces may consist of a compression element, plastic stays, or laces.

     

    When should I use an ankle brace?

    An ankle brace may be used as a preventative or treatment option. Many individuals may choose to use a brace to prevent injuries especially when there has been a history of ankle issues. Others may require a brace to support the joint as ligament and other soft tissue structures heal.

    How does an ankle brace work?

    Ankle braces work by applying compression and stability to the joint. These braces may limit the range of motion available at the joint particularly for the movements of inversion and eversion of the joint which are associated with a rolled ankle.

     

    Which ankle brace / support is right for me?

    Different ankle braces are available depending on the severity and duration of wear. A health practitioner such as a physiotherapist or orthotist will be able to find the most appropriate brace available.

     

    How do I take care of my ankle brace?

    Most ankle braces made of a nylon, knitted or soft fabric can be hand washed with soapy water. Some will be machine washable but please check care instructions. Braces with stays should have these removed prior to washing.

    Our warranty coverage varies for each product, ensuring tailored protection. For specific details or inquiries, contact our customer service at the provided number, 1300 672 937. We're here to assist you with any questions regarding the warranty for your particular product.

     

    How do I know my ankle support will fit?

    The size guide will give a good indication on which sized brace will fit the best. The brace should fit snug to provide some compression but should not be too tight. Another indication is that there are minimal wrinkles or excess fabric.

     

    Which brace is the best for ankle sprains?

    Ankle sprains are typically caused by the inversion / eversion movement of the ankle which applies excessive strain on the ligaments around the ankle. Ankle braces used to prevent this should have medial and lateral stays that act to stabilise the joint and prevent those movements. 

    Different ankle braces are available depending on the severity and duration of wear. A health practitioner such as a physiotherapist or orthotist will be able to find the most appropriate brace available.

     

    How long should I wear an ankle brace?

    The duration of wear depends on a variety of factors. Patient goals will greatly affect this. Individuals who wear a brace for prevention may only need to wear a brace during physical activity whereas individuals who require one for treatment of an injury may need to wear a brace until healed.

     

    How do I put on an ankle brace?

    Before putting on an ankle brace, the orientation of the brace should be identified. Often, the calf and foot section get mixed up. Each brace has different fastening systems and may have certain straps that are designed to be secured in a specific way. Please refer to the product manual (IFU) for more information.
