Guest guest Posted September 18, 2004 Report Share Posted September 18, 2004 Hi, I wear ankle splints which are from the USA. They are called ASO. They are pretty good actually. I used to wear a splint on both legs that was made out of plastic and went from just below the knee and supported under my feet. They were custom made. But last year they broke and so I had to see someone in orthotics. They suggested these new American ones just to support my ankles so that I didnt twist them when I was walking outside. They also said the old splints were making my muscles lazy. And I must admit my calves are a little stronger now. From Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 GG, I didn't get it directly from the company. The health authority in the UK paid for them for me. I'm not sure how much they cost but they are exactly the same ones I have and they seem to do the job for me.
