FAQ: How does a silicone pad help Achilles tendinopathy?

The silicone pad at the heel raises the heel slightly and cushions the Achilles insertion point - reducing tension on the tendon at the point of maximum load and decreasing irritation of the retrocalcaneal bursa. This heel lift and cushioning effect reduces pain during walking and activity, allowing continued function during the rehabilitation process. Combine with physiotherapy-directed Achilles loading exercises for best outcomes.

FAQ: Can the Oppo Achilles Brace be worn inside shoes?

Yes - the brace is designed for in-shoe wear. It may be most comfortable in footwear with slightly more heel height (running shoes, cushioned trainers) than flat shoes. Avoid very flat footwear that increases Achilles load during Achilles tendinopathy management. Consult a physiotherapist for a comprehensive Achilles tendinopathy rehabilitation program alongside brace use.
