Calf Sleeve Uses
The Calf Helix Compression Sleeve provides uniform compression and support of the lower leg muscles. Therefore, this support is ideal for the management of calf muscle pain and calf muscle strains. Additionally the sleeve is suitable for people who have been diagnosed with shin splints, calf strains, Achilles tendonitis, or gastrocnemius sprains.
Calf compression support is useful for calf injury prevention, management of calf muscle strains, performance enhancement, and muscle recovery after training.
The targeted Calf Helix muscle sleeve is shorter than the Full Calf Helix, and directs compression directly over the belly of the muscle, Thereby making it a great choice in warmer weather or when the calf muscle strain and pain are specific to a small area of the calf musculature.
The Calf Helix can also be worn lower on the leg to provide protection and warmth to the Achilles tendon.
Body Helix supports utilise Form-Fit Technology that allows a full range of motion while remaining anchored to the skin and firmly in position. The compression sleeve will not absorb excess water, bacteria, or odours, and it can be washed after every wear.
What is the difference in styles?
The Full Calf Helix is a longer compression support and ideal for taller athletes or for compression and support of the entire calf muscle.
A proper fit is Important
Measure your leg at the maximum calf dimension in order to get the proper fit. Please do not measure your knee.

Suffered from calf cramps in my left calf on the tennis court and during long distance runs after tearing that calf muscle three years ago. I have not had a single cramp since wearing the calf helix. Now my cramps are in the other calf, so I’m ordering a helix for that calf as well.

Haha extra charge? I would have gladly paid 100+ if I would have known how good this was! I paid way more than the $33 by buying $50 compression sleeves, a $35 roller, $60 inserts and all it took to make it feel better was this. You can absolutely use my quote on your website. I hope this product gets way more attention and I’ve already been telling everyone I know about it. I wish I would have known sooner! If you need me to write a more serious review I can certainly do that, I was (and still am) in a state of shock when I wrote that. I’m definitely going to be making another purchase.
From BodyHelix:
In view of your very pleasing response there will be an extra charge! Subject: No way
There’s no way this $33 beer koozie works so good on my calf. It doesn’t make sense! How can I possibly go from barely walking one day, to playing soccer for 5 hours straight?!?

My daughter’s sports medicine physician recommended Body Helix to us not long ago. He highly supports your products. My daughter loves her calf sleeve. My husband, Jeff can’t wait to try the ankle sleeve as well!
