- Maintains balance across the gait cycle: The ankle-foot orthosis supports multiple walking phases, promotes neutral foot positioning for a secure heel strike, and stabilizes the ankle to correct varus/valgus in midstance. - Material and comfort: Made from lightweight polyethylene composite with selected fabrics. Durable for long-term use while keeping weight low to reduce fatigue. - Easy to don: Opens from both sides for easier fitting, especially for hemiplegia. The low-profile design fits discreetly under pants or over leggings. - Walking performance: Elevates the forefoot during the swing phase to reduce foot drop, improves walking posture, and helps prevent stumbling linked to foot drop and aging. - Practical use scenarios: Post-stroke rehabilitation or neuropathy-related foot drop at home or in clinic; daily wear for work, school, or outdoor activities; gait training during physical therapy sessions.
