Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, Kerry!

Raffet Syndrome II and the TayCo Brace

An old injury to an unresolved ankle ligament resulted in supination of my right foot, which led to a chronic hip and lower back tightness and pain (Ruffet's Ankle-Spine Spine Syndrome). Standard physical therapy and various ankle braces didn't work. I adopted the 8-minute Kinetic Chain Reset, which helped but I needed better ankle stabilization for walking and hiking. I discovered The TayCo Easy-On Sports Brace - AthleticX Brace and found that it provides the stabilization and support that I need to correct the supination, improve my gait and assist with reducing my lumbar tension.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Wally! We’re thrilled to hear the AthleticX Brace has provided the stability you needed to improve your gait and support your active lifestyle. Knowing it’s helping you get back to walking and hiking with greater confidence means a lot to us here at Team TayCo.

Truly a perfect transition from the boot!

I have been using the Tayco brace for 2 weeks and it has been a game changer for me. I went from boot to no boot, and had issues and a small reinjury. The Tayco brace gives me perfect lateral support and has allowed me to rehab while being safely mobile. I am thankful for this brace!!!

Thank you for sharing your experience, Adam! We’re thrilled to hear the AthleticX Brace made the transition from your boot smoother and helped you stay safely mobile during rehab. Wishing you continued progress as you get back to the things you love.
