Femoral De-Rotation Orthosis Lower limb re-alignment orthosis designed to provide patients with a more functional gait pattern for everyday activities. Composed of a trunk belt and two thigh supports linked by elastic straps, the orthosis creates rotational forces from the inside of both thighs to the back/side of the belt. This encourages lower limb external rotation and abduction, consequently enabling better alignment for those whom overly internally rotate. The belt and thigh support are made from plush trimmable velour and are fastened at the front by adjustable touch closure crocodile hook and loop fastenings. Silicone dots are incorporated on the inside to prevent displacement of the orthosis and allow better cohesion.

Indications For Use: Post operative and post trauma. Neurological and orthopaedic gait deviations inc rotation of the lower limbs. Suitable for conditions such as cerebral palsy, spina bifida, femoral antiversion, hip laxity, and hypotonic musculature.

The prefabricated JuniorFIMs® were developed by a multi-disciplinary team of Podiatrists, Orthotists and Physiotherapists in specialist UK paediatric clinics. They are now widely regarded as one of the leading functional orthoses in the treatment of paediatric lower limb conditions, particularly flat feet.

3° Post

5° Post

The high density, deep cupped EVA inserts are specifically designed for childrens feet and during clinical trials they surpassed a 90% compliance rate. The lightweight low profile design enables accommodation in most footwear and the brightly coloured insoles available as a pair consist of one red (right foot) and one blue (left foot) to help avoid confusion, and is a good way to help children remember their right and left sides. JuniorFIMs® are available across all infant shoe sizes and in three variants: either neutral or with a 3° or 5° medial rear foot posting. The neutral shells are non corrective but provide enhanced arch support and subtalar control from their deep heel cup design, whilst the intrinsic 3° posted variant corrects mild pronation of the feet and the 5° posted variant offers correction of moderate to severe pronation of the feet.

Indications For Use: Reduction in lower back, hip, knee, and ankle pains/discomforts associated with mechanical malalignment resulting from overly pronated feet, flat feet, mechanical postural deficit, hyper mobility, and ligament weakness/laxity.

Hip & Hernia Hip fractures and dislocations are often caused by slips, trips and falls. Our alignment and protection garments are both effective measures in the rehabilitation and prevention of hip fractures. A hernia is typically caused by a protrusion of an internal structure through a weak point in the muscle wall or surrounding structure. They can occur in many parts of the body with the most common being around the groin (inguinal) or abdominal region. Some hernias have no apparent cause whilst others can be attributed to heavy lifting, pregnancy, or abdominal stress and straining. Our popular compression garments such as briefs, pants, boxer shorts and binders are indicated for use with various types of hernia and offer unparalleled support and discreet containment.

Carbon Ankle Foot Orthosis Lightweight, reinforced carbon fibre AFO designed to help dorsiflex the foot and limit plantarflexion and foot drop. Medial strut with built in arch support for improved fit and comfort whilst also providing mild mediolateral support. The pre-loaded impregnated carbon fibre is spiral designed and set in dorsiflexion to provide constant support to the foot. Energy is stored through stance phase and released in the toe off phase of gait to help forward propulsion before dorsiflexing the foot throughout swing phase. Return hook & loop calf closure with integrated quilted diamond stitched padding provides premium finish and excellent comfort.

Indications for use: Post operative and post trauma. Moderate footdrop. Flaccid footdrop. Dorsiflexion weakness in swing phase, mild hyperextension of the knee, and control for mild tonal plantarflexion from Cerebral palsy, neurological conditions such as CVA’s, musculature weakness, and tendon shortening. Improves gait, toe clearance, balance, and co-ordination.

Dynamic Walk Ankle Foot Orthosis The Dynamic Walk is a dynamic drop foot AFO constructed from lightweight carbon fibre composite and peek rods, providing high strength and flexibility allowing patients to undertake daily activities with ease. The revolutionary thermoplastic carbon fibre material exhibits the strength and stability of carbon fibre coupled with the re-formable attributes of thermoplastic. This enables the reshaping and trimming of the composite material to suit individual patient requirement. The peak rods are key to the Dynamic Walk's lifting action and flexibility. When a patient's ankle is in a 90° position, the rods are held out of their unloaded position and will use that stored energy to actively lift the foot at the initiation of the swing phase. The ability of the peek rods to be moved beyond the 90° position enables the patient to easily plantarflex. This ensures that everyday activities such as crouching, walking up or down stairs, driving etc. are all possible without the need to adjust or remove the orthosis. Simple to don and doff. It's discreet design ensures that it is easily accommodated in footwear. Available as bilateral variant (single rods) and a medial or lateral variant (dual rods). Please note all variants are issued with padding kits as standard and replacement padding kits are available upon request.

Indications for use: Post operative and post trauma. Flaccid footdrop. Dorsiflexion weakness in swing phase, mild hyperextension of the knee, and control for mild tonal plantarflexion from Cerebral palsy, neurological conditions such as CVA’s, musculature weakness, and tendon shortening.

Neutral

The prefabricated JuniorFIMs® were developed by a multi-disciplinary team of Podiatrists, Orthotists and Physiotherapists in specialist UK paediatric clinics. They are now widely regarded as one of the leading functional orthoses in the treatment of paediatric lower limb conditions, particularly flat feet.

3° Post

5° Post

The high density, deep cupped EVA inserts are specifically designed for childrens feet and during clinical trials they surpassed a 90% compliance rate. The lightweight low profile design enables accommodation in most footwear and the brightly coloured insoles available as a pair consist of one red (right foot) and one blue (left foot) to help avoid confusion, and is a good way to help children remember their right and left sides. JuniorFIMs® are available across all infant shoe sizes and in three variants: either neutral or with a 3° or 5° medial rear foot posting. The neutral shells are non corrective but provide enhanced arch support and subtalar control from their deep heel cup design, whilst the intrinsic 3° posted variant corrects mild pronation of the feet and the 5° posted variant offers correction of moderate to severe pronation of the feet.

Indications For Use: Reduction in lower back, hip, knee, and ankle pains/discomforts associated with mechanical malalignment resulting from overly pronated feet, flat feet, mechanical postural deficit, hyper mobility, and ligament weakness/laxity.
