KAFO (Knee-Ankle-Foot Orthosis)

A KAFO, or Knee-Ankle-Foot Orthosis, is a custom-designed brace that supports the leg from the thigh down to the foot. It helps individuals with muscle weakness, paralysis, or injury to stabilize and control their knee, ankle, and foot movements. Made of lightweight materials like plastic and metal, it allows for improved walking and balance while maintaining mobility. The KAFO can be adjusted to provide varying levels of support depending on a person's needs, helping them walk more confidently and safely.
