Title:
Twister straps w/o latex?
Text:
I have a small child diagnosed w/ lumbar level Spina Bifida that is able to
ambulate with bilateral semi-rigid AFOs. There is significant internal
rotation on both limbs, and I would like to use the low profile elastic
twister straps I have in stock to decrease this. Unfortunately, I cannot due
to possible allergic latex reactions. Does anyone else know of a low profile
alternative. The parents have some cosmetic issues, and prefer something that
will not stick out of the child's clothes.
I will collect the replies and post them to the list. Please let me know if
you do not want your name to appear on your reply.
