About the F.C.P Orthosis
- The F.C.P orthosis is a modular K.A.F.O designed to compensate for knee disorders of neurological, muscular, ligament or bony origin, associated or not with hip or ankle deficiencies.
- It is composed of carbon fiber uprights and bands but also of free knee or locking knee joints. It can be competed by a thermoformed AFO, ankle-joints and spurs or stirrups.
- Custom-built using a cast or an outline, by thermoforming carbon components using 5G40A forming table.
- Secures standing and walking phases with or without technical assistance devices (walking sticks or walker).
- Lightweight and resistant thanks ti carbon fiber properties.
- Its elasticity preserves physiological joints and improves walking comfort by absorbing the shocks.
- Modular : modifications are possible in case of weight gain or loss.
