Do the new shoes help dorsiflexion/tight heels any?

[Guest guest]

Apparently there are 3 types of shoes being used now? Is that

correct? I have been " off " for a while, so forgive me for asking.

I had heard other shoes mentioned but didn't really put much

consideration into it until I saw the post talking about the heels

being made differently. Grace has pretty much no dorsiflexion in

her right foot and her heels according to Dr Herzenberg and Ponseti

have not fully dropped. There is still a crease above each and they

are round in back.........Anyways, I have wondered if there was

something that could be worn that would keep the feet more

dorsiflexed. Do either of the new shoes help with the heel position

or dorsiflexion?? She is so comfortable in her old shoes, but its

time for new and I am willing to pay for the others if they would

help her more in any way. I would love to hear what others think.

If anyone has pics. of either new style could you email them to me?

I think Angel mentioned that one of the styles has a larger heel

pocket? What is that for? Any info will be appreciated. Thanks so

much, Boothe.....Mommy of Grace ......soon to be 3!!
