Scandinavian Orthopaedic Laboratory (SOL) manufactures the following orthoses:

  • foot orthoses (FO) with the purpose of improving foot arches, preventing progression of deformation and/or improving anatomic relations of the foot, reducing weight on pathologically changed parts and improving stability of the foot in footwear;

  • ankle and foot orthoses (AFO) improving stability of the foot and ankle complex, relieving the ankle joint, improving muscle and nerve control of the ankle and foot, and the foot and knee; The orthoses are made from a thermoplastic material or carbon fibre, in versions with a mobile or immobile ankle joint;

  • knee, ankle and foot orthoses (KAFO), relieving (in various degrees required) the knee and/or ankle joint and improving control and stability of the entire lower limb. These orthoses are also made from thermoplastic materials or carbon fibre, in versions with a mobile or immobile ankle and knee joint;

  • knee joint orthoses (KO), with the function of stabilizing the knee joint. The materials are similar to those used in ankle and knee joint orthoses, in versions with a mobile or immobile knee joint.

  • Children's orthotics

    The orthotics are similar to the ones for adults. We specially recommend using materials with colours friendly to children.
    The children's orthotics include also the following:

  • dynamic foot orthosis (DAFO), improving nerve and muscle control of the foot and ankle, and correcting and stabilizing the anatomic form of the foot while retaining mobility of the ankle joint. It is made from a thermoplastic material with individually adjusted thickness and elasticity;

  • hip, knee, ankle and foot orthosis (HKAFO), which improves stability and control of the pelvis and improves mobility and control of the hip joints. It is made from thermoplastic materials or carbon fibre with an option of vertical adjustment and controlled joint mobility.
