This Ankle Foot Orthotics is really different to foot orthotic or supports. Supports that support both the foot and the ankle are the Ankle Foot Orthotics or AFO’s. They are usually used in a variety of musculoskeletal condition (such us posterior tibial tendon dysfunction and recurrent ankle sprains) and in a variety of neurological conditions (such a foot drop, paralysis and stroke). Ankle Foot Orthotics is usually prescribed by a range of health professionals and is usually manufactured by prosthetists or orthotists. There is more prefabricated Ankle Foot Orthotics now on the market, so the manufacturing process can be bypassed so they can be provided quicker.
