Thrive F3® Hero is an innovative carbon-fiber Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO) thoughtfully crafted to support the needs of pediatric patients. Designed with both flexibility and durability in mind, this ultra-lightweight orthosis empowers active children to thrive in their daily lives.

The F3® Hero AFO is made with aerospace-grade carbon fiber stores and releases energy, providing spring-like dynamic feedback to make walking easier and more natural. Having a thermal-formed, moisture-wicking padding with a tibia-relief channel, makes it the most comfortable AFO on the market. 

With an anterior shell and a lateral strut that terminates just below the lateral malleolus, it enhances movement while ensuring optimal support. This proprietary strut design avoids contact with the malleolus (ankle bones) that cause many other devices to be uncomfortable or painful. Backed by the industry’s best 2-year carbon fiber warranty, this cutting-edge AFO delivers unmatched reliability and performance for growing patients.

The only orthosis on the market that telescopes above the knee to stretch both the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles. 

Ankle joints allow for a progressive, measurable treatment protocol. Staring in neutral, it has two settings each for plantar flexion and dorsiflexion (-20, -10, neutral, + 10, +20)

The toe wedge engages the windlass mechanism, providing an optimal stretch through the ankle joint while also stretching the plantar fascia.

The “Stomper” is a pediatric boot that is durable and easy to apply. It has a unique rocker bottom design which simulates normal gait. The Stomper can be used for minor fractures, or for more significant fractures in which a cast is initially used and then can be followed by the Stomper. It can also be used for sprains, soft tissue injuries of the foot and other disorders requiring immobilization.
