KERRAPED PLUS First Aid, Medium

Product Information

The Kerraped boots fill in for the vulnerable foot of the patients suffering from lymphedema, have neuropathic foot ulcers or the ones with bulky bandages on the foot who cannot wear their regular footwear. There is no such thing as 'Alternative medicine'. Something either works or it doesn't. If any 'alternative medicine' is shown to work they become 'medicines'. A supporting prescribing guideline may be requested which must have been agreed by the relevant secondary care trust DTCs and approved by the Nottinghamshire APC. Our body is made such that it divides the weight equally and makes a balance on both our legs that we stand on. However, when even one of the feet or legs are hurt it becomes difficult for a person to make a balance while standing, ending up with putting more pressure on the affected leg. These boots are therapeutic, off-loading footwear which reduces up to 30% of the pressure on your foot leaving you able to walk normally.
