Product details
The AFO Dynamic provides a strong, lightweight solution for
patients with varying degrees of drop foot secondary to a variety of
neurological conditions. Össur has taken the carbon fiber technology
from its Flex-Foot® product and incorporated it into the new AFO
Dynamic to provide increased support over traditional ankle foot
orthoses. The energy storing properties of carbon fiber make it an
ideal material for this dynamic ankle foot orthosis because it provides
real energy return. Best for those people leading busy lives, the AFO
Dynamic will ensure a more efficient walk for the user
