Your balance isn't bad because you're weak. It's bad because your nerves are quiet.
Your body maintains balance using three systems: vision, inner ear, and nerve signals from your feet. Chemo knocked out the third one. You're running on two out of three.
Compression gives your brain a substitute signal. The pressure tells your brain where your ankle is in space β information your damaged nerves can't send on their own. More data means steadier footing.
Swelling from poor circulation compresses nerves that are already damaged. The graduated compression pushes that fluid out, taking pressure off nerve pathways.
Falls are the hidden danger of CIPN. Grab bars and non-slip mats help at home. This helps everywhere else.
68% of chemo patients get neuropathy. Almost none get told what to do about their feet.
CIPN impairs proprioception β your brain's ability to feel where the ground is
Compression provides a steady external signal that partially replaces what damaged nerves can't send
Open-toe design prevents heat buildup that triggers flare-ups in temperature-sensitive feet
Fits inside HOKAs, Crocs, or any wide shoe β invisible daily support
43% of CIPN patients report receiving no guidance on managing neuropathy
