Prophy-x

The preventive “Prophy-X” strap system is worn on the outside side of the ankle joint and has two straps that cross one another. The dorsal (rear) Prophy-X strap is at right angles to the inversion/eversion axis and prevents the foot from twisting inwards and being sprained. The ventral (front) Prophy-X strap offers a counterbalance and offers resistance to the forces applied to the dorsal strap. The Prophy-X straps criss-cross each other in the rotation axis of the upper ankle joint and this means rolling of the foot is not impeded.
