Ankle Foot Orthotics (AFO's) (Wichita, Colby: hospital, business, art)

[pix4434]

Hi, I am posting this thread to everyone to ask for help finding somewhere in Kansas, that Custom AFO's are made. I just found out that I have to have them and would like to know where they are made and if anybody has any experience with them and what there experience has been.
Thanks,
Alicia

Many chiropractic offices have a means of scanning the bottom surface of your feet in order that a custom made orthotic can be made. Orthotics are particularly useful if you have an anatomically short leg comparted to the other. Many times though the bones of the feet can be adjusted to relieve pain. Here's a link: Foot Levelers, Inc.. Good luck and be well!

Talk to the people at Unique Feet in Wichita, I think they do them. There
is a podiatrist office next door, too.

I just wanted to let everybody know that I found a place in Colby KS that makes custom AFO's. It is a guy that comes from NE down to the hospital in Colby that has a business called Sky Prosthetics. The guys name is Ben Blecha and I get to have my legs casted to start the AFO process on Thursday.

It sounds like you found and chose that which resonated best with you. I hope the orthotics help you on your path to better health. Blessings, Brian
