ANKLE BRACES AND SUPPORTS
Often with an acute injury such as an ankle sprain we want to prevent further damage to the damaged tissue. We therefore, supply temporary bracing to support the damaged tissue. These supports are deemed temporary because once the tissue has healed we want to strengthen it and surround ligaments/muscle to prevent recurrence. Some examples of bracing at Waterloo Foot Clinic include: ankle sleeves (for ankle instability/sprains), post-surgery shoes, Strasburg sock (plantar fasciitis), and plantar fasciitis socks. We also have an assortment of sports taping so taping can be done when needed. (We will educate you on proper taping techniques so that you have the option of doing taping yourself).
