DID YOU KNOW? Dancer injury rates are TWICE the amount as football players from the knee down? It's true! Most of those dancer injuries are caused by overuse, repetitive strain & inflammation (65% from the knee down). This inflammation causes pain, aches & can lead to chronic injuries. We want to help you ache less & feel better. How do we do that?
Apolla Shocks combine several sports-science technology features specifically for dancers but...
WHY DO YOU WANT ALL OF THESE FEATURES IN YOUR FOOTWEAR?
Apolla uses high-quality 20-30mmHg targeted compression zones to create flexible arch support & ankle stability, Apolla socks offer similar support provided by taping or KT tape but a better range of motion, comfort, and usability. The compression is strategically designed to target points of the feet and ankles to reduce inflammation. Reducing this inflammation makes you ache less and dance more with less pain. Compression feels like your feet and ankles are receiving a nice, snug hug or a massage. It is not uncomfortable, but it will feel different. Apolla's patented targeted compression is what makes it special and cannot be duplicated in another compression sock. It is the 'goldilocks' of compression levels to assist circulation & recovery. This makes you feel less fatigued and energizes your muscles. It also helps to stabilize the 26 bones in the foot and the ankle's tendons and ligaments. However, it is important to note it does not restrict full range of motion, so it does not prevent muscles from building strength. You will however notice increased awareness of your alignment, proprioception, and kinesthetic awareness. The stability they provide is also raved about by customers with joint hypermobility and are looking for comfort and stability.
Wearing Apolla Shocks during class minimizes the amount of inflammation that occurs due to the repetitive nature and the movement that IS Dance. Regardless of technique or strength, dance creates repetition and overuse in your joints and muscles and that causes inflammation. We also strongly encourage dancers to wear them when NOT dancing, as they also help to refresh your muscles so you can come back to class refreshed and reduct the liklihood of chronic injuries like plantar fasciitis, tendonitis or other inflammation-related injuries that can compound and create career-ending injuries. Our graduated compression assists circulation to remove the inflammation from the feet and ankles. Additionally, our knit-in energy absorption provides metatarsal (and heel comfort for full-coverage Shocks) while reducing force on the joints and muscles. All of these features plus our various styles that are designed to fit your preferences, AND a refreshable traction, combine to make Apolla Shocks world-class footwear for dancers.
You can wear them for class, travel, conventions (terrible hotel carpet laid over concrete), on stage, or everyday wear and recovery!Simply put, Apolla Shocks work! We have thousands of reviews to help you know why you should invest in your body and career. They help you ache less and feel better...AKA Dance Longer & Dance Stronger! The best part? We guarantee satisfaction. So give us a try and see what Apolla can do for you!
