Product Description
The Carbon Fiber Footplate provides mild intervention for Idiopathic Toe Walking (ITW). The footplate is light in weight but very stiff, and limits toe walking because the toes cannot bend. This combination provides a low level of support that may help with compliance for patients with ITW, compared to the alternative of blocking excess plantarflexion with an AFO design
KEY FEATURES
- Sleek design fits under insole or orthosis.
- Rigid support helps prevent toe walking by blocking MP extension.
- Slight toe angle assists with toe off.
INDICATIONS
For patients who exhibit Idiopathic Toe Walking (ITW) who haven’t worn orthoses before or have had issues with compliance.
