Where to buy an ankle brace / PTTD?

Does anyone know where I would be able to buy an ankle brace; specifically a posterior tibial tendon support?


I know that a couple of sports shops sell various braces etc, but I'd be more interested in a pharmacy or similar that sells medically approved products.


Thanks in advance.

The pharmacie next to the Cerrefour Market in Ferney Voltaire has a huge section. Otherwise any pharmacie in town should have a litle selection and can always order specific items.

There's a shop at Rive that should have it, Opposite to McDonalds, at a corner. The place looks like a pharmacy but has a lot of corrective/medical equipment.

The shop has lots of stock but the customer service leaves quite a bit to be desired.

Thank you all for your support. (Pun intended)


I tried EGG but they are unfortunately closed for vacation (until next Monday).


I had more luck with Edward's recommendation - Medi-Phy at Cours de Rive 2.


They are reassuringly cramped and badly presented (the showroom - not the staff) and this is their main business, rather than an add-on.


Having said all that: the woman who served me, while completely professional and helpful, was so dazzlingly good-looking that I would have bought anything she suggested.

I'd give my right arm for a good prosthetic
