Avicenum Ortho 1500 Achilles Tendon Orthosis Type 01 - Aries Avicenum ORTHO 1500 Gebrauchsanleitung

(EN) Dear Customer,
In your hands, you are now holding an Achilles tendon orthosis for post-operative and
post-traumatic therapy. You can maximize the benefits of the product by its proper use
and maintenance.
Avicenum ORTHO 1500 Achilles Tendon Orthosis Type 01 is manufactured by the flat
knitting technology. The materials used are non-irritating and latex-free. There is an ana-
tomically shaped silicone pad integrated in the back of the orthosis which improves pro-
prioception (the ability to coordinate the body in space), thereby supporting and stabilizing
the Achilles tendon. The package includes two silicone slipsoles. One is intended for the
affected leg to ease walking and absorb impacts, while also reducing painful tension in the
Achilles tendon by slightly elevating the foot. The other slipsole is used for the healthy leg
to even out the length of the both limbs. The mechanism behind the effects of the product
is based on the compressive action in the Achilles tendon area which produces the desired
therapeutic effect. In order to achieve these effects, you must select the correct size of the
product. The product is most effective during physical strain and is also suitable for sports
activities. You should remove the product during longer breaks. Avicenum ORTHO 1500
