Product Overview
- UFO™ Universal Plantar Fasciitis Orthosis The Universal Plantar Fasciitis Orthosis is a pre-fabricated night splint for the effective treatment of Plantar Fasciitis and Achilles Tendinitis. The UFO comfortably supports the affected foot in a controlled amount of dorsiflexion, applying a Low Load Prolonged Stretch (LLPS) to the soft tissues of the plantar fascia and Achilles tendon. LLPS promotes gentle stretching, healing and re-modeling of these tissues, effectively reducing the stress and pain caused by inflammation and tissue shortening. Such support can help break the cycle of injury, pain and re-injury due to otherwise unlimited contraction and deformity of the soft tissues at night.
- The simple variable dorsiflexion design allows the patient to quickly and easily adjust the amount of applied stretch to provide the most effective pain relief.
- Adjustable bilateral dorsiflexion assist straps
- Coolfoam™ replaceable liner wicks moisture away from the skin for enhanced hygiene
- Non-skid pad included
- Five universal sizes fit both left and right feet
- Pediatric UFO™ The pediatric UFO™ from Orthomerica is a comfortable, prefabricated orthosis for stretching and maintaining dorsiflexion range of motion. This unique lower-limb orthosis positions the foot and ankle in optimal alignment for placing stretch on the soleus while the patient is sleeping. When used in conjunction with a knee immobilizer, this orthosis can also stretch the two-joint gastrocnemius group.
