Gel Ankle Brace offers high quality, adjustable comfort with our sturdy plastic outer shell that molds to the contours of your ankle and has an adjustable heel pad for a customizable fit. The gel pad has better adhesion, good thermal conductivity, and it can be frozen for ice compress or heated for hot compress. It's intended to prevent or treat acute ankle injuries, chronic instability, post-operative use and ankle sprains grade I, II, and III. This ankle support brace has a low-profile structure, allowing for minimal bulk while wearing shoes. It resists inversion more than taping, yet normal flexion is virtually unrestricted.
