Review on Zensah Ankle Support ๐Ÿ Compression Volleyball: Optimizing Stability and Performance by Jim Bethea

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Perfect for compression, not so much for sport!

This orthosis does not give me any extra support as stated in the title and description, I will NOT use this orthosis for sports as I don't think it gives much more support than a tight sock. However, the corset is still in use. Type. To give you an idea of the pain I am experiencing and trying to heal; I had an ankle fracture 3 years ago which required 2 surgeries and to this day still causes me great pain although it appears to have healed as it should. I wear the brace at home for a few days and it's hard to say if it helps or not. It compresses my foot/ankle decently, which in my case improves the overall feel of my ankle. I'm not entirely sure if this is helping me, but it's probably more of a placebo and at least gives me a slight confidence boost in my ankle muscle strength. So in conclusion I'd say if you're looking for something that will wrap your ankle fairly tightly to perhaps make up for a lack of muscle mass or some bias, this is probably ideal. something with ankle straps or side supports.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • No effect
