NORMAL DIABETIC SHOE: Price range 4500 to 6800 plus GST 1) Diabetic shoes decrease the risk of diabetic foot ulcers and thereby reduce amputations. They provide support and protection while minimizing pressure points on the feet. They also have extra depth to accommodate diabetic inserts. There are many styles to choose from, and the shoes look much like any other shoe. 2) Diabetic shoes are often wider and deeper than regular shoes to accommodate a special multi-density insert that is designed to reduce pressure and callouses to the bottom of feet. Diabetic shoes have a larger “toe box” to prevent squeezing of the toes. Who is eligible for the Medicare diabetic shoe program? - History of partial or complete foot amputation - History of previous foot ulceration - History of pre-ulcerative callus - Peripheral neuropathy with evidence of callus formation - Foot deformity - Poor circulation  Price range 4500 to 6800 plus GST

Rehabilitation aids are devices or equipment designed to assist individuals in their recovery process following an injury, surgery, or illness. These aids help improve mobility, strength, flexibility, and overall functionality. Here are some common types of rehabilitation aids: Exercise Equipment: Various exercise tools and machines can aid in rehabilitation. These include resistance bands, therapy balls, balance boards, and pedal exercisers. They help strengthen muscles, improve range of motion, and enhance balance and coordination. Walking Aids: As mentioned earlier, walking aids like canes, crutches, walkers, and knee walkers/scooters can assist individuals in regaining mobility during their rehabilitation journey. Orthotic Devices: Orthotic devices are supportive braces or splints used to immobilize or support specific body parts during the healing process. They can provide stability and protect joints, muscles, or ligaments. Examples include knee braces, ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs), wrist splints, and back braces. Range of Motion (ROM) Devices: ROM devices help individuals regain or maintain joint mobility. They can be passive or active. Passive devices, such as continuous passive motion (CPM) machines, move the joints through a controlled range of motion without the individual's effort. Active devices, like pulley systems or therapy bands, require the individual to actively move the joint. Assistive Devices for Activities of Daily Living (ADL): These aids help individuals perform everyday tasks independently during their rehabilitation. Examples include reachers/grabbers, dressing aids, adaptive utensils, shower chairs, and raised toilet seats. Electrical Stimulation Devices: Electrical stimulation devices use low-level electrical currents to stimulate nerves and muscles. They can be used to manage pain, prevent muscle atrophy, improve muscle strength, or promote tissue healing. Balance and Coordination Tools: Balance boards, stability discs, and wobble cushions are aids that help improve balance, coordination, and proprioception. It's important to note that the specific rehabilitation aids needed may vary depending on the individual's condition, the stage of rehabilitation, and the guidance of healthcare professionals. Consulting with a physiotherapist, occupational therapist, or healthcare provider is crucial to determine the most appropriate rehabilitation aids for an individual's specific needs and goals.

AFO with Tamarac Ankle joint  The Tamarack Flexure Joint is recognized and used worldwide in the orthotic & prosthetic industry due to its high strength tension load bearing element, which provides smooth articulation and unmatched durability. Tamarack Flexure Joints are lightweight, cost effective, and easy to install in custom and semi-custom thermoplastic and laminated orthopedic bracing applications.

A Knee-Ankle-Foot Orthosis (KAFO) is a custom made brace that starts above the knee and extends all the way down the leg to the end of the toes. These braces will normally include a knee joint and possibly an ankle joint as well. A KAFO is prescribed by your physician when there is significant weakness and/or instability at the knee and ankle joints. The KAFO will allow patients to stand by locking the knee joint in the brace when the thigh muscles are too weak to support the knee. This brace can also reduce significant knee hyperextension (genu recurvatum) during the gait cycle. KAFOs can be extended to the hip to provide additional support to the hip joint if necessary.  The KAFO is commonly used in the treatment of: 1-Blount’s Disease 2-Genu Recurvatum 3-Post-Polio 4-Spinal Cord Injury 5-Arthrogryposis 6-Cerebral Palsy 7-Polio 8-Spina Bifida  At your initial assessment you will meet with your Orthotist to go through a complete assessment of your strength and range of motion and undergo an observational gait analysis. There are many different designs of KAFOs, each with different functions and levels of support. In collaboration with your Orthotist at OrthoProActive and your health team, we will determine which KAFO design will help to provide you with the best functional outcomes.

Designed to provide ankle deloading, immobilization and support to the fractured ankle/lower leg. Walker boot can be a substitute for cast or can be used in case of early cast removal, It helps in early ambulation of the patient with ankle/lower leg fractures. With a wider rocker bottom, these boots promote a natural gait, reduced plantar pressure, enhanced stability and comfort to the lower leg.
