Overview
The WalkOn Reaction Lateral is lightweight, low profile, and extremely tough. Like other members of the WalkOn Family, the Reaction Lateral is fabricated from a prepreg advanced carbon composite. It is especially designed for active patients with weak dorsiflexion or paralysis.
- Passive, flexible limitation of plantar flexion ensures dynamic foot positioning
- Carbon fiber construction creates a stable, lightweight orthosis and provides high energy return
- Limits plantar flexion and supination when worn with a stable shoe
- Lightweight design and slim anatomical shape increase compliance and allows for a dynamic gait at higher speeds
- Lateral strut avoids conflicts with contra-lateral side and to better suit ankle supination or flat foot
Indication:
- Moderate to severe drop foot with knee instability, mild to moderate spasticity, e.g. after stroke, peroneal palsy, traumatic brain injury, in multiple sclerosis, neuromuscular atrophy, etc.
