Enhance Your mobility with Specialized Orthotic Management by expert orthotics consultant for post polio syndrome
Post-Polio Residual Paralysis
Post Polio Residual Syndrome (PPRS) can significantly impact lives, causing disability and challenges. While it may not be widely recognized, early intervention and comprehensive management are crucial. Rehabilitation and orthotic support play key roles in improving function and quality of life for those with PPRS. Seeking professional care and adopting self-management strategies can help minimize the effects and enhance overall well-being.
What is PPRP ?
Post-Polio Residual Paralysis (PPRP) refers to the persistent muscle weakness or paralysis that remains in individuals who have previously had polio. It is a long-term consequence of the polio infection and can occur years after the initial illness. Rehabilitation and management strategies, such as physical therapy and the use of orthotic or assistive devices, can help individuals with PPRP improve their functional abilities and quality of life.
The Major Challange
One major challenge of Post-Polio Residual Paralysis (PPRP) is the progressive muscle weakness and fatigue that individuals experience over time. This can significantly impact their mobility and ability to perform daily activities. Additionally, managing pain and discomfort associated with PPRP poses a significant challenge for individuals, requiring comprehensive pain management strategies.

ANKLE FOOT ORTHOSIS
AFO & KAFO
AFOs are used to address foot drop, a common problem after Post Polio Residual paralysis. They provide support and prevent the foot from dragging while walking, improving stability and preventing tripping
FLOOR REACTION ORTHOSIS
GROUND REACTION FOR KNEE CONTROL
Floor Reaction Orthosis (FRO) is a specialized orthotic device designed to provide stability and support to individuals with various lower limb conditions, including polio. It utilizes a rigid frame and strategically placed pads to generate a “floor reaction” force, which assists in controlling knee flexion and extension during walking
KNEE ANKLE FOOT ORTHOSIS
STABILIZATION & CONTROL
Knee ankle foot orthoses are used to stabilize and control knee and foot movement. They can be beneficial for stroke survivors with weakness or instability in the knee joint, providing support during walking or standing.
