Specializing in Mechanical, Medical and Surgical Management of the Leg, Ankle and Foot
Man’s foot is all his own. It is unlike any other foot. It is the most distinctly human part of his whole anatomical makeup. It is a human specialization, and whether he be proud of it or not, it is his hallmark, and so long as man has been Man, it is by his feet that he will be known from all other members of the animal kingdom.

HOW THE ARIZONA BRACE WORKS
The Arizona Braceis the onlypatented, clinically tested ankle brace of its kind for the treatment of posterior tibialis tendon dysfunction and other disorders of the foot.
The Arizona Brace was designed for the treatment of posterior tibialis tendon dysfunction (PTTD). It is the only brace tested to be 90% effective at treating PTTD as an alternative to surgery.
The brace fits into a comfort shoe and stabilizes the ankle area, the talocalcaneal, midtarsal and subtalar joints. It provides medial and lateral stability to minimize sinus tarsi impingement and reduces either forefoot abduction or adduction. Overall, the Arizona AFO’s patented design relieves pain of the foot and ankle complex and increases mobility.
