The Protekt® Heel-Gel Elevation Boot is designed to fully offload the heel by suspending it over an open air cavity, eliminating pressure and friction while promoting healthy airflow. This suspension method provides maximum protection against pressure sores and supports the healing of existing ulcers. A removable gel pack adds an extra layer of pressure relief and can be used for hot or cold therapy as needed.
