Sporlastic prints these steps in the instructions for use supplied with the product.

• Remove the original sole of your shoe.
• Open the NEURODYN PERONEUS fastening strap at the hook-and-loop end that clings to the calf cuff. It has an orange ring.
• Now place the brace in the shoe. Make sure that the plastic sole fits snugly.
• Slip into the shoe in a sitting position. The brace acts like a shoehorn. Once the shoe is on and closed, move your foot forwards until the calf cuff makes contact with the lower leg.
• Now grasp the open end of the hook-and-loop fastener and guide it around the lower leg. Attach the hook-and-loop end with the attached deflection loop to the strap area that lies on the calf strap.
• The selection of the right shoe is crucial for the function of the NEURODYN PERONEUS.
• Discuss the correct footwear with your technician. The effective heel height of the shoe should be approx. 10 mm.
• Closed shoes with a removable footbed are best suited. This provides sufficient volume for the brace. It is important that the heel is enclosed.
• There is no body weight limit for the brace. There are also no restrictions for everyday activities. However, the brace is not approved for sporting activities.
• The padding of the shell can be unclipped for cleaning.
