Pair of graduated compression socks with interlaced arch support and padding to the malleolus to protect against possible blows while performing exercises.

High compression low-cut half socks, designed for artistic gymnastics with innovative calcaneal tendon support that favours the thrust during the execution of the athletic gesture. PATENTED elastic structure that stimulates the proprioceptive system, improves balance and motor control and helps prevent possible trauma.

Shock-absorbing padding in the impact areas of the malleolus and heel offer greater protection and comfort.

BENEFITS

The high compression of the KINESIA sock, characterised by a patented structure with interlaced ankle-arch support , stimulates the proprioceptive system of the ankle, thus guaranteeing many advantages:

• improves balance and stability
• improves posture
• improves motor control
• helps prevent ankle sprains
• accelerates post-traumatic recovery from ankle sprain

WATCH KINETAPE IN ACTION

PROPRIOCEPTION

Proprioception is the ability to perceive and recognise the position of the body and limbs in space, without the support of sight, both during the maintenance of static postures and during movement. It is a complex neurophysiological mechanism activated by specific receptors, real sensory organs, present in the muscle, on the joints and on the skin, which send their signals to particular areas of the brain.

These sensory signals have been called proprioceptive by their discoverer: Charles Scott Sherrington, physician, neurophysiologist, pathologist, English poet and winner of the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1932.

When we run, our proprioceptive system is activated continuously and allows us to perform the movement. This applies to the technical gesture characteristic of every sport, such as gymnastics.

Those who have problems with the proprioceptive system, following trauma to the joints or degenerative pathologies of the nervous system, can have an uncertain movement, increasing the risk of falls and injuries. KINESIA compression socks, by stimulating the proprioceptors of the ankle with its strong pressure, improves motor control with all the resulting benefits.

SENSORY TECHNOLOGY AND SILVER DRYSTAT

The KINESIA sock, 100% Made in Italy, is made of breathable and antibacterial fabric, Silver Drystat®, which, thanks to the silver molecules contained within the fiber itself, guarantee a lasting effect of the bacteriostatic agent even after repeated washing. inhibiting the formation of bacteria and consequent bad odors.

The proprioceptive control system is powered by an innovative knitting of sensory technology and is activated by the PATENTED structure of interlaced elastic fabric that offers effective and stable support to the ankle, and avoids the additional use of annoying, bulky and unsightly anklets or bandages.

MATERIALS:

Anti-bacterial and anti-odor fabric

48% Polyamide, 41% Silver Drystat Polypropylene, 7% Elastane, 4% Acrylic
