Hi List members,
I have heard of a system in which the dorsi assist AFO does not insert
inside the shoe, but is designed to be installed between the bottom of the
shoe and the heel of the shoe. It comes down behind the calf, behind the
back of the shoe and extends forward between the sole layers of the shoe.
This is nice for patients who don't have room for custom inserts in addition
a plastic AFO inside the shoe.
If you are aware of where I can procure this, please let me know and I'll
repost it to the list.
Thanks,
