Guest guest Posted July 28, 2003 Report Share Posted July 28, 2003 An excellent description of AFO, orthotics and other braces, and when they may be needed, is in the MDA publications under Bracing Experiences. http://www.mdausa.org/publications/Quest/q62bracing.html " There's no such thing as a typical brace for people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) or any of the other disorders covered by MDA. The particular muscle weakness, much more than the disease, is the key to brace selection. " Kat Seattle WA USA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
