AFOs (Ankle-Foot Orthoses)

AFOs support the foot and ankle when muscles, tendons or joints can’t do the job alone, restoring confidence and reducing pain with every step.

Ankle-foot orthoses are prescribed for conditions such as drop foot, post-stroke gait deficits, posterior tibial tendon dysfunction, Charcot foot, severe ankle arthritis and complex offloading needs. A well-designed AFO can change someone’s mobility, both stability and confidence.

At Southern Podiatry Clinic Nowra we design AFOs from individual assessments and biomechanical findings, then manufacture them in-house, by Brett. Brett’s direct control over the build means designs can be refined and adjusted as the patient progresses.
