FROSTIQ FOOT CARE
Stridelock Active-Support System
A curved aluminum insert helps hold your foot in a more lifted, natural position, secured by a dial that won't loosen through the day.
THE ESSENTIALS
Curveguard insert — curved aluminum, helps hold a more lifted foot position
PrecisionLock dial — steel pull-cord, one twist to tighten or loosen
GripTrack — double-track silicone, seam-mounted, anti-slip
Foot drop can result from stroke, MS, peripheral nerve injury, or muscle weakness, and often leads to toe dragging and compensatory movements through the hips and knees. StepGuard is designed to provide adjustable support to help reduce this dragging — it does not treat or cure the underlying cause.
For severe foot drop or rigid ankle instability, a doctor-prescribed rigid AFO may be more appropriate. Talk to a healthcare professional before use.

THE PROBLEM
After stroke, MS, nerve injury, or muscle weakness
Often causes hip hiking or high-stepping
Increased on stairs, curbs, uneven ground
Support and consistent movement can help.
Sourced from general clinical literature on foot drop, not StepGuard-specific data.
WHY IT SPREADS
WHAT TO EXPECT
Feel more supported through each step,
Less catching your toes on the floor or carpet edges,
More confidence on stairs and uneven surfaces,
Less reliance on hip-hiking or high-stepping to get through your day.
When a foot drags with each step, repeated friction against the ground can lead to dry skin, calluses, and irritation under the toes over time. Helping lift the foot may help reduce that repeated friction.
STAIRS AND UNEVEN GROUND
A curved aluminum insert helps hold your foot in a more lifted, natural position throughout the day, supporting the front of the foot during your step.
Twist-to-tighten cord mechanism lets you fine-tune support level — tighten for more lift, loosen for less.
Anti-slip seam keeps the brace in place through a full day of movement.
StepGuard is designed to provide adjustable support and does not cure or treat foot drop. Individual results vary.
Wear it during the day for active support, or overnight as a splint. The same fit works for both.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
If you have foot drop, balance concerns, or a history of falls, talk to a healthcare professional before using StepGuard. Stop using it and seek medical advice if you feel unsteady while walking.
