The Parrot Open-Back AFO is a two shell dynamic open backed orthosis. Made from dual density materials. The posterior cut out and adjustable ankle strap allows for increased shank inclination for a more biomechanical correct gait whilst still controlling unwanted movement.

The Parrot Open-Back AFO is designed to offer enhanced foot clearance, controlled movement, and improved stability, making it an excellent choice for individuals requiring plantarflexion control and mediolateral support. Unlike traditional orthotic solutions, this low-profile and cosmetic design provides comfort and functionality without compromising mobility.

Featuring an open-back structure with semi-rigid ankle strapping, this orthosis helps align the stance phase while enabling controlled movement on slopes and stairs. Additionally, the posterior cut-out and adjustable ankle strap allow for better shank inclination, promoting a more biomechanically correct gait.
