Smart Orthotic Treatment (SOT) Resting Hand Orthosis
Many complications can cause reduced mobility in the hand, which can result in contractures if left untreated. Starting hand therapy at an early stage, before spasticity is established, may help to maintain or increase mobility of the hand. Smooth and lightweight, the SOT Resting Orthosis has an aluminum core that allows adjustment to the desired resting position. A good biomechanical position may reduce the risk of flexor shortening in the wrist and fingers. The soft, elastic cover eliminates pressure points from bulky straps.

Triple Action
The Triple Action™ Stance/Swing Control Ankle Joint is designed to provide highly adjustable control of the lower limb during both the stance and swing phases of gait. The patent-pending component excels in the treatment of complex neuromuscular disorders. Alignment, plantarflexion resist, and dorsiflexion resist are independently adjustable, which help to simplify optimization. The component delivers high resistance, permitting mobilization of the ankle through both the stance and swing phases of gait.

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.

Vista Ankle
The Vista Ankle is a universal single-axis prosthetic ankle joint designed for elevated vacuum applications. The vacuum is generated from the ankle movements of plantarflexion and dorsiflexion during the gait cycle. The barb fitting for the vacuum hose connection is located inside the proximal tube clamp of the ankle, protecting it from damage. The distal female pyramid adapter is compatible with a wide range of prosthetic feet. The Vista Ankle is cost-effective, low maintenance, lightweight (13 oz./385g), and has a weight limit of 275 lb./125kg. Contact us for more information.
