Ankle Foot Orthosis
An Ankle Foot Orthosis, or AFO for short, is an external orthosis fitted to the ankle and foot. At Interface Technology, we may prescribe an AFO for any number of reasons, such as supporting weak muscles, controlling and re-directing spastic muscles, reducing pain, improving joint alignment/positioning, and most importantly, improving quality of life.
Posterior Dynamic Element Orthoses
A Posterior Dynamic Element (PDE) orthosis is a AFO style device including a PDE strut. A PDE strut bends under weight bearing and then provides energy return. This energy return assists to push the foot forward and begin an efficient step.
Foot Orthoses
At Interface Technology we often prescribe, fabricate and fit foot orthoses. Our foot orthoses are custom made shoe inserts which are designed to optimise alignment, minimise pain or distribute weight bearing throughout the whole foot. At Interface Orthotics we use a foam impression box to take an impression of your foot for a mess free casting appointment!
