A modular ankle-foot orthosis includes a lower leg and ankle support and a plantar
foot support. The two components may be secured together to provide more complete
support for a patient, as required. The two supports may be attached in various
ways, such as a bottom heel clip extending from the foot support component, which
secures through a passage in the heel of the lower leg and ankle support component.
A tongue extends from the foot support clip, to capture the material at the edge
of the lower leg and ankle support passage between the tongue and the foot support
plate. The two components are quickly and easily assembled together and disassembled
as required, to provide more versatile treatment for the patient. The complete
structure, or any components thereof, is sufficiently thin to allow wear within
a conventional walking shoe or the like.
