Support for compression of soft tissue at the ankle
Levamed E+motion is an ankle support that can be used for many different kinds of injuries. These include mild sprains and instabilities of the ankle as well as swellings or irritations.
The Levamed E+motion has compressive fabric as well as a thin silicone quartz pad with 3D profile. Working together, they stabilise the joint and create a pleasant massage effect that can reduce swelling and promote the healing process. Alongside the tried and trusted medical effect, Levamed E+motion scores extra points with its exclusive features in a sporty look. The breathable fabric made from active fibre and merino fibre support the thermo-regulation in both summer and winter, adapting perfectly to movement and also giving the joint extra stability for high stress during sport, at work or in everyday life. The extra-large comfort zone in the bending region and the pressure-free cuff promote wearing comfort.

How does it work?/Mode of action
Levamed causes a massage effect, which supports perfusion, with interaction between the compressive knitted fabric and the two integrated silicon inlays. This effect reduces swelling and bruising. Irritation and pain are relieved. Muscular control and the stabilisation of the ankle joint improve. Supports are particularly beneficial during physical exercise.
Donning/fitting instructions
Fold the top of the support over as far down as the silicone inlay.
Take hold off the support in the middle of the silicone inlays and pull it over the foot until the heel part fits tightly.
Unfold upper part of the support and pull it upwards, if necessary.
Ensure that the silicone inlays are correctly located either side of the ankle.
Initial application must be made under medical supervision.
Wearing directions
The supports is designed to fit comfortably and may be worn all day. It should be removed during prolonged periods of inactivity (e.g. sitting for a long time or a long car drive, sleeping).
If you suffer excessive pain or discomfort during wear, please take off the product immediately and seek medical advice. The support is suitable for use in water. After use, please rinse thoroughly.
