English
- Scissor Gait Control: The angled metal uprights prevent the legs from crossing by maintaining hip abduction, leading to a more efficient and stable gait pattern.
- Dynamic Support: Unlike rigid braces, it allows for controlled movement, supporting the child’s natural transitions between sitting and standing.
- Improved Posture & Stability: By stabilizing the pelvis, it helps improve trunk alignment and balance, which is essential for sitting and other functional activities.
- Low-Profile Pelvic Section: Specifically designed to fit comfortably without interfering with the rib cage, making it ideal for users with shorter trunks.
(SWASH) Hip Orthosis
- A dynamic hip orthosis designed to manage “scissor gait” by guiding the legs into proper abduction. It improves pelvic stability and posture, providing crucial support during sitting, standing, and walking. Its low-profile design makes it especially suitable for patients with limited space between the iliac crest and the rib cage.

The Pectus Carinatum Brace is a non-surgical orthopedic device designed to correct protrusions of the chest wall commonly associated with pectus carinatum (also known as pigeon chest). It applies gentle, consistent pressure to the sternum and rib cage to gradually realign the chest structure over time. The brace is adjustable, ensuring a customized and comfortable fit for different body types. It is most effective when used during adolescence while the chest wall is still flexible.
A dynamic orthosis designed for the treatment of developmental hip dysplasia in infants. It promotes healthy hip joint maturation by holding the hips in the optimal therapeutic position of flexion and abduction, often referred to as the “seated squat” or “frog-leg” position. This mimics the natural pre-birth position, creating the ideal conditions for the hip socket (acetabulum) to develop correctly around the head of the femur.
- An articulating ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) featuring a mechanical ankle joint to allow for controlled movement. It is designed to assist with dorsiflexion weakness (drop foot) and control mid-foot position, while also managing knee hyperextension caused by excessive plantarflexion.
Properties:
- Provides controlled ankle support to prevent and correct contractures.
- Adjustable straps for a secure, customizable fit.
- Lightweight, durable materials (TPU or carbon fiber) for comfort and strength.
- Joint mechanism allows adjustable range of motion.
- Padded lining for pressure relief and long-term wear comfort.
- Ventilated design to keep skin dry and reduce irritation.
- Rigid foot plate for proper alignment and gait stability.
Specifications:
- Material: Thermoplastic polyurethane or carbon fiber composite
- Sizes: S, M, L, XL or (Custom-made)
- Weight: Lightweight for ease of use and mobility
Indications:
- Prevention and correction of ankle joint stiffness or contractures.
- Post-injury or post-surgical rehabilitation.
- Management of neurological or muscular conditions affecting ankle mobility.
- Gait improvement and stabilization in patients with muscle weakness or imbalance.
- A specialized orthosis designed to manage femoral rotational deformities, such as in-toeing or out-toeing. It consists of a pelvic belt connected to an ankle attachment via a flexible torsion cable, which applies a gentle, corrective force to control rotation of the femur during movement. This system helps guide the entire limb into a more neutral alignment throughout the gait cycle.
- A dynamic functional splint designed to compensate for muscle weakness in patients with radial nerve palsy. It supports the wrist in an extended position and provides dynamic assistance to extend the fingers and thumb, allowing for effective grasp and release and improving overall hand function.
The Extended Defort AFO uses the same design as the standard model for the distal part of the orthosis. However, it features a polymeric extension that extends proximally up the calf. This model provides additional leverage length and control for those with maximum stabilization and control needs.
This design, which is effective in reducing pressure points that cause disruption to skin integrity, enhances patient comfort.
