Orthotist Required: VertAlign TLSO/LSO Inventory is Custom Fit not OTS!
Having a component inventory available in your facility does not make our product OTS. A VertAlign Spinal Support System is custom fit, requiring the clinical and biomechanical expertise of an orthotist to select the correct front and back shells from the 550 different size, shape, and lordosis- and kyphosis-possible configurations. The orthotist's professional skills are needed to select, adjust, and apply the components that meet the patient's unique anatomical spinal support needs. We provide components and product training. You provide clinical judgement and professional skills.

The Original No-Itch Fiber
NSP/CSP is a green, eco-friendly, natural fiber that creates no itch. Copycat fibers that claim no itch don't compare.
NSP/CSP is a unique fiber that is lighter and stronger, and offers half the stiffness and ten times more impact resistance than carbon. The stiffness can be regulated by fiber orientation to equal carbon. NSP/CSP is dynamic in its ability to be either stiff or flexible depending upon the practitioner's preference. NSP/CSP wets out fast because of its high resin fiber interface and low void content, which means the resin sticks and air does not get
trapped easily.

Dynamic Chopart Gait Stabilizer
This unique AFO has been designed for people with Chopart amputations who wish to remain active. A traditional, full-length AFO will often be stiff and feel unnatural to such a patient. Using a hinged ankle and flexible foot plate with a segmented dynamic filler allows flexion before providing a "stop" that protects the residuum and prevents shoe vamp collapse. The PTB design and the anterior shell redistribute ground reaction forces up the lower limb. For more information, visit our website or call the lab toll-free.

SMO With Plantarflexion Stop for Idiopathic Toe Walking
Do you treat idiopathic toe walking? For over
ten years, we have been using this design in
the vast majority of the cases we see. For the
right patient, this design works exceptionally
well to establish a normal heel-toe gait
pattern. We have found that physical therapists
prefer this design as it is less invasive and lower
profile than hinged AFOs.
Our fabrication facility is centrally located in
San Antonio, Texas. Mention this ad for 25% off
your first order. Call or visit our website for more
