By Howard J. Tzorfas D.P.M.
Why be concerned about falling? Falls and fall-related injuries
are the leading cause of accidental death in older people. Half of
seniors who fall, will fall again within a year Nearly half of the seniors
who fall reduce their activity after a fall. Most fractures among older
adults are caused by falls. What if you or your loved ones could wear
a simple brace in their shoes to prevent falling or injury. There is a
new prescribed custom made ankle foot orthosis designed to easily
fit into most shoes. By wearing this brace it stabilizes the foot in
the presence of weakness and fatigue. It stimulates skin receptors
providing feedback to the brain. Also it provides ankle support,
improving balance and helps avoid falls by reducing postural sway.
It also provides foot clearance reducing the risk of tripping. It can
be easily put on and removed. Extremely light weight.
Contact your local podiatrist to see if he or she provides
this brace for their patients. It involves an office visit where the
patient's gait is analyzed and fiberglass casts are made of both feet.
Takes about 20 minutes for casting and the braces usually arrive in
3-4 weeks. Medicare and most insurances approve 100%.
If you have any foot problems, issues and questions,
please contact Howard J. Tzorfas, D.P.M. at 908.236.6999,
