Custom Ankle Foot Orthotics (AFOs)
Custom Ankle Foot Orthotics (AFOs) for Enhanced Stability
For individuals with neuromuscular conditions, post-stroke weakness, or severe foot drop, Custom Ankle Foot Orthotics (AFOs) from Western Sydney Foot Clinic offer essential support and improved mobility. Our AFOs are designed to promote proper ankle alignment, prevent tripping, and enhance overall gait efficiency.
Our AFO Specialties Include:
- Drop Foot Management: Lightweight, dynamic AFOs that lift the foot during swing phase—reducing the risk of falls and trips.
- Post-Stroke Rehabilitation: Custom-moulded AFOs to stabilise the ankle, improve stance phase control, and support recovery goals.
- Neuromuscular Disorders: Tailored AFOs for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), cerebral palsy (CP), peripheral neuropathy, or Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease.
- Rigid & Articulated Designs: Depending on your condition, choose from solid AFOs for maximum stability or hinged AFOs for controlled ankle movement.
- Collaboration with Allied Health: Our team works with physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and rehabilitation specialists to ensure your AFO meets your functional requirements.
A thorough evaluation includes strength testing, joint range-of-motion measurements, and gait observation. We then take detailed casts or digital scans to create an AFO that fits seamlessly inside your footwear. Ongoing follow-up ensures comfort, alignment, and modifications as needed.
