Strap Lok Provides Better Ankle Support
Swede-O has launched the re-designed Strap Lok ankle brace with a full top strap. The Strap Lok is constructed of lightweight, durable ballistic nylon and features figure eight straps that lock the ankle in a protected position. A new, fully adjustable top strap provides additional stabilization of the ankle and a more secure fit. Exclusive offset panel traps the laces between the inner and outer panels to hold the laces tighter and longer while the close-spaced eyelets lock the heel in place and prevents shifting. The Strap Lok is manufactured with a full elastic back for a more conforming fit that helps eliminate blistering. The breathable tongue wicks moisture away from the skin to keep the ankle cool and dry. The Strap Lok is available in white or black and comes in six sizes (XS-XXL) to fit most patients.

Stability/Osteoarthritis Pressure Relief for Active Clients
The M.4 OA knee brace is designed to ease pain from unilateral osteoarthritis and all indications requiring pressure relief. The design provides pressure relief of the medial or lateral joint compartment by a well-cushioned, padded, three-point relief system that off-loads the effected compartment into a varus/valgus position. The brace safeguards against hyperextension by limiting flexion and extension. The ultra-flat, lightweight and non-protruding Avional aluminum frame and hinge are rigid and durable. The Physioglide hinge closely matches the movement of the knee joint and reduces downward pressure, minimizing migration.
