Walking Boot and AFO Alternative - RecoverX Brace
Denise W. (Renton, WA, US)
After 7 months I finally found something that would help

I fractured my foot 7 months ago and won't bore you with the long journey to here. At first we thought it was a sprain but once diagnosed I tried to wear a boot. It totally threw my back out. I kept searching for something that would create more stability for my foot without instability for the rest of my body. This is perfect. By wearing this, I am hoping to avoid surgery.

Thank you for sharing your story, Denise! Seven months is a long road, and we’re so glad the TRecoverX Brace has given you the stability you were looking for without throwing the rest of your body off balance. Wishing you continued progress and a steady return to the things you love.

won't work for my foot

I have a foot with issues the braces doesn't support I've tried it everyday since I receive it doesn't help mines not about a fracture.
I need balance in my foot not ankle or calf.

Thank you for trying the brace a try, Jan! We appreciate the feedback. The AthleticX Brace is designed to stabilize the ankle and control roll, so it may not provide the type of midfoot balance support you’re looking for. We’d be happy to learn more about what you’re experiencing and see if we can help. Our customer support team will reach out so we can make sure you’re taken care of.

Game Changer

I was suffering from a messed up tendon in my left foot. I was wearing a fabric brace that fit on my ankle/foot inside my shoe. It was a real pain putting it on and off and was not comfortable. I thought it was helping.
When I fit the Tayco Brace and got up and walked I was amazed. Much of the pain was gone and the fit and comfort was amazing. Now that I have worn it for a week I hardly notice I’m wearing a brace. It’s so much better being on the outside of my shoe. I’m thinking of buying a second one to wear when I go hunting and keep one clean and nice for everyday use. My ankle had been swollen for weeks. The swelling went down after about 4-5 days of wearing the new brace. It’s given me new hope that now that the ankle is so well supported and comfortable the tendon may actually heal.

Thank you for sharing your, BJ! We’re so glad the AthleticX Brace has made such a noticeable difference in your comfort and support. Hearing that your swelling went down and that you hardly notice you’re wearing it after a week is exactly what we hope for.
