Plantarflexion Stop DAFO 3

Plantarflexion Stop DAFO 3

Product catalog summary
Key Concept: The DAFO 3 orthotic device is designed to stop ankle plantarflexion while allowing free dorsiflexion. This design promotes ankle mobility and facilitates a better weight shift from foot-flat to toe-off during the gait cycle.
Design Features: The DAFO 3 combines the trimlines of the DAFO 4 with a solid posterior upright, providing excellent control of both the hindfoot and forefoot. It effectively stops plantarflexion but allows free dorsiflexion.
Recommended Use: This orthotic is suitable for patients who exhibit strong fixing patterns, excessive plantarflexion with minimal voluntary ankle control, consistent toe walking, strong knee hyperextension, and have more or less established development with developed gait patterns.
Control and Stability: The DAFO 3 offers excellent wraparound control for both the hindfoot and forefoot, ensuring stability of the hindfoot while allowing free dorsiflexion at the ankle.
Additional Features: The model includes instep and forefoot straps, standard padding, and a toe rise for added comfort and functionality.
