👣 Why Are AFOs Important? Let’s Break It Down!

Ankle-Foot Orthoses (AFOs) are more than just braces—they’re life-changing tools that support mobility and independence. Here are some key reasons they’re prescribed:

🧠 Neuromuscular Conditions
Conditions like cerebral palsy, spina bifida, or muscular dystrophy can affect muscle tone and movement. AFOs help improve alignment, control spasticity, and support better walking.

🚶‍♂️ Foot Drop
Struggling to lift your foot while walking? AFOs provide the lift and support needed to prevent tripping and improve gait.

🦶 Severe Flat Feet or Foot Deformities
When feet need extra structure, AFOs offer the correction and stability that standard orthotics can’t.

⚖️ Severe Instability
If your ankle and foot feel unstable, AFOs create a strong foundation for safer, more confident steps.

💬 Have questions about AFOs or think they might help you or a loved one? Reach out—we’re here to help!

I had a super special helper today at the office. At 2.5 yrs old, she is showing a lot of interest in prosthetics and orthotics! She even swept our floor!

👣 Amputees—You Have Options! 👣

At ALOCV, we hear it all the time:
"I didn’t know I could switch providers."
"I thought I had to wait a certain amount of time."
"I didn’t realize insurance could cover this."

Let’s clear things up:
✅ Prosthetic replacements, socket replacements, and maintenance components (like liners, sleeves, and socks) are covered by insurance based on medical necessity—not a specific time frame.

Are you experiencing:
Discomfort or poor fit?
Pain or recurring sores?
Dissatisfaction with your current components?
Mobility goals not being met?
Less active lifestyle due to your prosthetic holding you back?

If you are experiencing any of those mentioned above, know your rights:
👉 You have the right to seek another opinion.
👉 You have the right to ask questions.
👉 You have the right to choose your care provider.

💬 At ALOCV, we believe in patient education.
You should never feel “stuck” at one facility. We’re here to help you understand your options and get the care you deserve.
📞 Contact us today to talk about your needs and how we can help.
🔁 Please share this post—you never know who might need to hear it.

We provide treatments for individuals who have suffered debilitating illness and injuries.
