Custom orthotic for casual/lace-up dress shoes.
The Arizona Balance Brace™ (ABB) is the original balance brace and the only one clinically proven to reduce postural sway and increase postural stability. The ABB is a custom-made AFO designed to reduce the risk and incidence of falls in the elderly and high risk populations.
The ABB is best utilized in conjunction with a comprehensive fall prevention protocol which may include strength training, certain environmental changes in the home, physical therapy and other related specialties.
The ABB is typically prescribed bilaterally.
