Helping kids lead healthier, happier lives

摘要

Nearly 30 years ago, Cascade DAFO Inc. introduced the first Dynamic Ankle Foot Orthosis (DAFO) for pediatric and adult patients who lack some degree of voluntary control of their foot and/or ankle. Unlike rigid AFO braces, the thin, flexible contoured DAFO brace wraps around the entire foot to provide better foot sensation and alignment that allows the patient to learn movement by moving. It also protects the foot and ankle from danger, helps patients to maintain the correct foot/ankle position, encourages mobility, and ultimately improves success with standing and walking skills.
