Re: overpronation and chondromalacia

In order to answer your question better, an exam and evaluation would be needed. Custom orthotics can be helpful to control the pronation that can sometimes contribute to chondromalacia. There are other causes as well.

Custom orthotics are made by many practitoners. As a podiatrist, I feel we have the most training and understanding of the biomechanics of the feet.

The Active Ankle offers flexibility and security. It will feel different from anything you have ever worn for ankle protection. The hinge allows freedom of motion that you may not be accustomed to. Do not mistake this freedom of movement for lack of support. A leading university said, the Active Ankle provides more support (inversion) than the leading air-stirrup brace, the leading lace-up brace, or a tape job.
