DRAFO® LITE
       

Dynamic - Response - Ankle-Foot Orthosis - Lite

 

“An intermediate solution for more traditional applications”

 

The DRAFO® Lite was developed as an addition to the DRAFO® family of products to serve more traditional AFO applications.  This is a more simplified design that features a solid heel, conventional strapping and a smaller inner-boot focused on the distal section.  Practitioners often choose this DRAFO® Lite option when the primary concern is knee hyperextension and standing instability.

The DRAFO® Lite protects against knee hyperextension with a solid heel that induces forward vectoring at heel strike, unlike the deceleration experienced with a soft heel.  The elimination of the sach heel effect with the simplified solid heel design also helps maximize stability while standing.

The DRAFO® Lite maintains many of the DRAFO® features that has set it apart from traditional AFO’s, but still delivers simplified solutions for more traditional applications.
