Is the RecoverX Brace Right for Me?

Biomechanics Proof

Rest easy knowing that our ankle brace technology is backed by extensive research from multiple universities and research institutions.

"TayCo Brace is 96% as stable as a walking boot in a kinetic state, and does not affect the knee and hip in the same way as walking boot." -Clark Dickin: Ball State University
"TayCo Brace provided improved balance with the smallest center-of-pressure (COP) excursion overall and showed higher patient perceived outcomes compared to other conditions. The CAM boot was the worst for perceived and measured outcomes." Olivia Raspotnik PT, DPT, Christian Wilhelm PT, DPT, Kimberly Beren Shepler, Abbis Jaffri PT, MS, PhD: Creighton University
“TayCo outperformed the CAM Boot in all categories conducted in this study. Relative to a CAM boot, TayCo provides greater stability, less energy expenditure, and reduced risk of proximal injury.” Edward Gordon, Megan Smith: Transcend Orthotics and Prosthetics

This brace made me mobile again

After being diagnosed with both peroneal and Achilles tendonitis(es), my podiatrist issued orders to sport a CAM walker for a good six weeks+ in addition to a non-weight-bearing protocol. I was in so much pain I didn’t even mind! But after a few days, I remembered how completely unusable CAM walkers are when you live alone in a two-storey house. That’s when a quick search led me to this ankle brace, which claimed to replace a CAM walker and more. Two days later I already received the product and two minutes after that I felt relief I had not felt in months. The difference was night and day beyond what I can adequately describe. Within 24 hours I could comfortably put weight on my right side again. I was able to get around the house when required and stairs became infinitely easier and safer to maneuver. After about a week I was comfortable with running errands outside the home (brief ones, no driving!). The over-the-shoe design works great and is doable even after many hours of use. I have slept with it on just over a thick sock. All in all, a fantastic product. I am so grateful for the increased quality of life this brings me. Thank you!

Thank you for taking the time to share your story, Margaux! We're so happy you found the comfort and stability you were looking for.

I love this brace!

Bad case of tendinitis in my ankle lead me to this brace. I did not want the traditional walking cast and standard ankle braces were not doing the trick. I love how I look almost normal with the brace on and that it does not impede my ability to do normal tasks. This is the brace the world needs. That said, I do feel the ankle lock mechanism does seem to be loosening just a slight bit. I have very thin ankles and would like the brace to fit a bit tighter but all in all, this brace is working and I’m feeling so much better!

Thank you for such a great review, Sarah! We appreciate it.
