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