Dorsiflexion Assist Ankle Foot Orthosis

A dorsiflexion assist AFO can aid in ankle dorsi flexion (toe pickup) as well as limit motion in the ankle. It is designed to provide an intimate fit and optimal function. This AFO can also limit plantar flexion.

Solid Ankle Foot Orthosis

An AFO which allows no motion in the ankle joint is called a Solid Ankle AFO. It locks the ankle joint to accommodate many pathologies.

Plastic Hinged Ankle Foot Orthosis

This support allows for free dorsi and plantar flexion of the ankle while limiting medial and lateral movement of the ankle. The plastic design is lightweight, cosmetically acceptable and allows the patient to interchange shoes. A variety of multi-functioning ankle joints may be applied.

Laminated Hinged Ankle Foot Orthosis

This support allows for free dorsi and plantar flexion of the ankle while limiting medial and lateral movement of the ankle. The laminated design provides for heavy duty wear and accommodates patients with edema. A variety of multi-functioning ankle joints may be applied.

Metal and Plastic Ankle Foot Orthosis

This orthosis allows for limited front to back movement of the ankle while limiting medial and lateral movement of the ankle. The combination of materials allows for the best of both worlds, merging streamline design with the strength of metal. A variety of multi-functioning ankle joints may be applied.

Composite AFOs offer the newest technology in providing lightweight support with optimum rigidity. There are a variety of custom fitted designs available.  When these custom-fit AFOs do not work, custom-made devices can be fabricated.

The Patellar Tendon Bearing AFO is designed to unload weight from the ankle and foot area. The orthosis provides support around the entire circumference of the leg.
