How the AZ Brace Works

The Arizona Brace is the only patented, clinically tested ankle brace of its kind for the treatment of PTTD and other disorders of the foot.

The Arizona Brace was designed for the treatment of posterior tibialis tendon dysfunction (PTTD). It is the only brace tested to be 90% effective at treating PTTD as an alternative to surgery.

The brace fits into a comfort shoe and stabilizes the ankle area, the talocalcaneal, midtarsal and subtalar joints. It provides medial and lateral stability to minimize sinus tarsi impingement and reduces either forefoot abduction or adduction. Overall, the Arizona AFO’s patented design relieves pain of the foot and ankle complex and increases mobility.
