Compression on the arch of the foot

The compression ankle sock offers firm compression on the arch of the foot and around the heel-instep line. Under the foot runs the tendon sheet that connects the heel bone to the ball of the forefoot. This extra compression is important to maintain the natural arch of the sole of the foot and to relieve the tendon plate, which means that the arch of the foot will sag less. Stretched ligaments and slack muscles are now supported correctively. This makes an important contribution to preventing irritation of the tendon plate and keeps the arch of the foot under tension.

Swollen feet

Many walkers and sometimes runners are familiar with the 'swollen' feet phenomenon during and after a brisk walk or run. Until now, there was no other remedy for this than raising the legs during breaks and after exercise. But now there is a solution: the Herzog Sport Compression Ankle Socks.

Causes and how to prevent

The cause of this discomfort is mainly due to the binding of fluid with the protein-rich breakdown products that are released during exercise. This fluid (edema) cannot be removed quickly enough by the venous system from the feet and ankles during exercise. A contribution to faster drainage can be made by administering measured compression from the outside. A technique that was developed by Herzog in the 1990s and continued to be perfected.

Extra compression on the arch and ankle region running down to the bottom of the calf ensures:

  • that moisture with the waste slag from the incineration process is removed more quickly,
  • and therefore less edema formation can occur in the foot.

Combination Tube with Compression Ankle Sock

When you use the ankle sock in combination with the compression tube, it is possible to keep the tube on longer, even after training or competition. Because compression is applied to the entire lower leg.

Many users find our Herzog Compression Ankle Socks a bull's eye. Not only are they extremely effective in combating heel spurs and combating moisture retention, they are also wonderful running socks.

Features of the optimal running sock are:

  • ergonomic shape adjustment to the left and right foot,
  • good padding and therefore optimal pressure distribution and shock absorption,
  • good heat management and prevention of perspiration odor.

In short, this is a sock with an effective therapeutic effect and it is also a superior running sock.

“During my time as a physiotherapist at NAC Breda, I recommended the PRO Compression Shorts from Herzog Medical to many players. These trousers are worn both preventively and curatively. Within football, the incidence of groin and hamstring injuries is high. With Herzog shorts you, as a physiotherapist, have an extra tool to properly manage these problems.”
