Ideal For

Patients diagnosed with posterior tibial tendon dysfunction at Stage I or Stage II who require conservative bracing support during daily activity will benefit from the targeted medial ankle compression and tendon offloading this brace provides. Podiatrists, orthopedic surgeons, and physical therapists managing patients with adult acquired flat foot deformity may prescribe this brace as part of a conservative treatment protocol to reduce pain and slow deformity progression. Individuals experiencing medial ankle pain, arch collapse, or early flat foot changes who are not yet candidates for surgical intervention will find this brace a clinically appropriate non-surgical option. It is also suitable for post-operative use in select cases where controlled ankle support is indicated during recovery, as directed by the treating clinician.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is posterior tibial tendon dysfunction (PTTD)?
PTTD is a condition in which the posterior tibial tendon — which supports the arch and helps the foot function during walking — becomes inflamed, overstretched, or torn. It is a leading cause of adult acquired flat foot deformity and can cause progressive medial ankle pain, arch collapse, and difficulty walking if left untreated.

How does this brace help with PTTD?
The AirLift PTTD Brace provides pneumatic medial ankle support that offloads the posterior tibial tendon during weight-bearing activity, reducing the stress placed on the tendon with each step. This helps manage pain and supports the arch while the tendon heals or is managed conservatively.

Is this brace available for the right foot?
This listing is for the left foot only. A right foot version is available separately. Ensure you select the correct foot when ordering.

How do I confirm the correct size?
The medium size fits Men's shoe sizes 7–11 and Women's sizes 9–12.5. If you fall outside this range, check the small or large versions of this brace for a proper fit. Consult your healthcare provider if you are unsure which size is appropriate.
