Wedges for Stretching Calf Muscles After a Stroke - for Drop Foot.

Wedges for calf stretching therapy after a stroke are a simple but extremely effective tool that can help you with:

• Increasing calf muscle flexibility: Improving calf muscle flexibility is crucial for the proper functioning of the foot and ankle. Wedges help to gradually stretch the muscles, which can reduce stiffness and improve range of motion.
• Preventing drop foot: Drop foot is a common problem after a stroke. Wedges can help maintain the correct foot position and prevent it from dropping.
• Pain relief: Stiffness and tension in the calf muscles can cause pain. Stretching the muscles with wedges can help reduce pain and improve walking comfort.
• Accelerating rehabilitation: Regular stretching of the calf muscles can speed up the rehabilitation process after a stroke. The wedges are easy to use and can be used independently at home, allowing for more frequent and effective stretching.

We offer three wedges with different angles of inclination:

• 10° Wedge: Ideal for starting therapy and for people with less flexibility.
• 20° Wedge: Allows for more intensive stretching for people who have already made some progress.
• 30° Wedge: Recommended for people with high flexibility who want to stretch their calf muscles to the maximum.

3 pcs. of wedges with different angles of inclination for stretching the calf muscle after a stroke.
Stretching the gastrocnemius calf muscle (leg):

• Lean over a table.
• Rest your forearms on the tabletop.
• Select the largest possible angle for the wedge/wedges and place them under the forefoot.
• The heel should rest on the ground - in front of the wedge.

This means we support the foot with a wedge, with the leg straight at the knee. Gently begin to put weight on the front leg until you feel a noticeable resistance in the stretched leg (the one at the back). Hold the stretch phase statically for as long as possible, for a minimum of 20-25 seconds. Take a break and repeat the exercise several times. The calf should be gradually stretched more and more, up to the limit of comfort, without excessive pain.
