The Solid ValgaNoodle AFO is a rigid device that has dynamic motion occurring through the footplate. It includes a medial or lateral “Reverse-T” designed to support ankle deformities. The “Reverse-T” gives the user the ability to vary the amount of pressure applied just proximal to the malleolus making it comfortable and functional. This design is easy to wear and takes up significantly less shoe space than plastic AFOs. The solid ValgaNoodle is highly customizable and has many options which are listed below.
Solid ValgaNoodle’s are available exclusively through clinical orthotists and prosthetists.
Check with your doctor and orthotist to verify that you can safely use the Solid ValgaNoodle. The Solid ValgaNoodle applies biomechanical corrective forces to the leg, increasing ambulatory performance. Your doctor/orthotist will select the proper design to maximize these benefits specific to your individual needs. Your doctor/orthotists will be there for any follow-up care, adjustments, repairs and its eventual replacement. Ask your doctor/orthotist for guidance on the use and care of your Solid ValgaNoodle.
Your doctor/orthotist will determine if the Solid ValgaNoodle is right for you!
Do not use the Solid ValgaNoodle for ambulation or transfer if you are not capable of ambulation or transfer.
