Same old golden rule ,D.B splint for night.Spring tortion rod with a pelvic
band attached to shoe for day.Over here we encourage people to reverse the
shoe(RIGHT FOR LEFT AND VICE VERSA).
I used to attach one inch Webbing on the lateral side of the
forefoot(SHOE),turn it around the leg before attaching it to leather pelvic
belt lateraly.You can also use the belt that the patient will already have
on his pants by putting a belt..This was the best torsion control I ever
got.try it and see if it works for you.Let me know if it works.

One of the solution for internal tibial torsion is spiral AFO which pushes
the foot and lower leg to external rotation. Proximal part should fit to
medial femoral condyle.

Dear Mr. Zargar,
ipos NA offers a torsion orthosis that can be attached to regular shoes and
is worn with a calf and pelvic band.
The orthosis consists of a torsion rod made from Vulcolan rubber, which is
fixed between a distal and a proximal attachment. An adjustable, continuous
torque is created treating the rotational defect.
We would be glad to send you some more information and drawings of the
device for your information. Please contact us at 1-800-626-2612 or at

Stefanie Selck
