What Is Drop Foot? 👣

Drop foot makes it hard to lift the front of your foot, causing it to drag when walking. It can result from nerve injury, muscle weakness, or neurological conditions like stroke or MS.

At Restorative Limb Center, we offer advanced treatments and therapies to help restore movement and confidence.

👉 Let us help you take the next step toward recovery.
