I'm trying this again because there might have been some confusion as to
what I was looking for since I started getting many prosthetic responses.
I need to find and orthotic ankle joint that has an inversion / eversion
quality to the joint itself.
I'm not interested in depending on the plastic of the brace being flexible
enough to simulate movement.
I'm not interested in any rotary - A-P movement.
I'm not interested in the attachment points of the joint to the plastic
being flexible.
I'm not interested in a posterior joint such as with the PRAFOs, to set in
inversion / eversion.
I am looking for a joint that has a deliberate, dynamic inversion / eversion
quality to the joint, at the joint center. I want to place this joint at
congruent medial and lateral ankle joint alignment locations.
I'm told this exists.
Thanks to all in advance.
