  • Before & After | Strong Knee Hyperextension | DAFO 3 Before & After | Strong Knee Hyperextension | DAFO 3

    This before-and-after video shows a young patient with strong knee hyperextension wearing DAFO 3s. The solid proximal-posterior upright of the DAFO 3s block her excess plantarflexion, preventing her from hyperextending at the knee. Because there is no proximal anterior strap, her leg is free to move into dorsiflexion.

  • Before and After | Moderate toe walking | DAFO Softback Before and After | Moderate toe walking | DAFO Softback

    The soft durable pad and strap combination of the DAFO Softback help this patient keep her heels down so she can achieve a good heel strike. Her pronation is corrected and she can access free dorsiflexion to help build strength and range.

  • Before and After | strong toe walking | DAFO 3 Before and After | strong toe walking | DAFO 3

    The solid proximal posterior upright of the DAFO 3 blocks this patient's plantarflexion, preventing him from going up on his toes. Because there is no proximal anterior strap, his legs are free to move into dorsiflexion. He has a nice heel strike and his feet are held in a corrected position while wearing the DAFO 3.
