Custom Fitted Braces
Knee Braces
Custom fitted knee braces are orthopaedic devices that are specifically made for an individual in order to provide protection and support to the injured knee joint. They are often used in order to address soft tissue injuries (Ligament
Braces), correct the bone position, provide stability and limit motion (Osteo Arthritic Braces).
In Our office we provide BREG braces with the latest FUSION technology. These braces are featuring sleek, lightweight frame with ProForm technology which utilizes Zytel polymer that allows a precise, contoured fit. The ProForm technology allows the brace to engage sooner, to resist knee displacement and reduce injury causing movement while keeping the brace solidly in place.

Custom Made Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO)
Custom AFO is an unique device used to support both ankle and the foot
providing maximum control and stability. AFOs are used for treatment of
many foot pathologies but mostly they are being utilized in the cases of
adult acquired flatfoot secondary to posterior tibial tendon
dysfunction, drop foot and Charcot’s foot. AFOs can also be used in the
support of the foot and ankle as a result of flaccid disorders (polio,
radiculopathy, Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) and peroneal muscular atrophy).
This particular brace is designed to be very slim allowing for an easier
shoe fit. However, in order to have the best fit and support this brace
would still have to be used in combination with a stable, lace up shoe .
Spine Bracing
Spine braces are used to address both chronic and acute injuries by providing immobilization and support. We offer BOA spine braces that are designed for comfort and easy use. They are light weight, low profile braces with a breathable air mesh liner. They are designed to allow maximum tightening with minimal exertion and body motion thanks to the unique lacer compression system.
