Hello O&P world,
I am searching for the availability of Orthotic services in or near Torino, Italy. I would also like to know if anyone has had a positive experience with trying an extension-assist K.O.? Are there any knee joints capable of generating enough extension force to control the long lever arms of the leg without a lock? We decided to go with posterior offset joints, but the M.D. insists that there was a knee joint that was used for Patellafemoral chondromalacia that had an effective extension assist. I had to say I don't know (I hate it when that happens). Do any of you know? Thanks
