Zusammenfassung:	An Achilles heel wedge (300) can include a single member having an anterior portion (302) and a plurality of layers (304, 306, 308) integrally connected at the anterior portion (302). A plurality of slits (314) can differentiate the layers (304, 306, 308). Each slit (314) can include a terminal end (316) in the anterior portion (302) having a perforation (318) with a dimension greater than a width of the slit (314). The layers (304, 306, 308) of the heel wedge (300) can be selectively cut, ripped, or torn from the anterior portion (302) of the heel wedge (300) along the perforations to achieve incremental height adjustment of the heel wedge (300) and stretching of the Achilles tendon.
