Re: orthotic inserts- and others

Kat here.

<< Dilger can make them >>

I'm curious about just what the inserts are like.

Are they very thin, or thick? How thick - like thin cardboard or a quarter of

an inch, half inch, or ??

Soft or hard?

Floppy or rigid?

How did they help Spencer? Less pain? More balance? Something else?

an inch, half inch, or ?? This will depend, They are molded to your feet

like AFOs.

Soft or hard? Soft Like the insole of a shoe , Harder then the bottom of

an AFO on the underside of the ortho.

Floppy or rigid? They are stiff as a board.

They supported his ankles to keep them from rolling out. Gave him arch

support. Kept his toes from curling.
