Excellent brace

This is a fantastic brace. Easy to apply to gym shoe and adjusts quickly. I e used with both bars in and top one removed. Minimal increase in pain with increased range of motion. Highly recommend this brace for peroneal tendon recovery

Great success using brace

Much better for recovery than the boot the ortho provides. Enhances mobility and stability. So happy I ordered one. Definitely feels like my recovery is progressing much better and I’m walking with a much more normal gait.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Cheryl! Knowing the RecoverX Brace is helping you feel more confident in your recovery means a lot to us. We appreciate your support and are glad you’re getting back to doing more with confidence.

Excellent brace!

This brace is the absolute best brace I’ve found in the past year.
I have a feeling it’ll still be the best one in the rest of this year and next!

Thank you for the fantastic review, Bruce! We’re thrilled to hear the AthleticX Brace has been the best brace you’ve found. Knowing it’s become your go-to for the long haul means a lot to us.

RecoverX brace

I didn't think it was going to make a big difference but I was wrong. I have been able to walk and move around with the RecoverX brace with a lot less pain. I have been diagnosed with Osteoarthritis in both my ankles and had difficulty walking. I'm up to the point where I'm looking towards ankle replacement surgery. The braces have made a difference for me.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Louis! We’re so glad to hear the RecoverX Brace has helped reduce your pain and made walking easier despite the challenges of ankle osteoarthritis. We truly appreciate your feedback and wish you the very best as you continue your journey toward better mobility.

So far so good

After a year of considering the tayco brace, I finally purchased one and I’m very happy with it. I’ve had it for less than a week and so far I’ve used it 3 times to help my walking. It has stabilized my severe ankle roll by at least 50%. I’m now more confident that I can walk without the risk of falling from the debilitating ankle roll I have suffered with for years.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Joseph! We’re thrilled to hear the AthleticX Brace has already helped improve your stability and given you more confidence while walking. We appreciate your trust after a year of considering it, and we’re excited to be part of helping you stay active with greater confidence.
