Revolutionary New Carbon Fiber Brace

Updates the UCBL Standard

The Aligner AFO is a revolutionary new orthotic brace that updates the University of California Biomechanics Lab (UCBL) standard. The Aligner AFO is designed for posterior tibial tendon dysfunction (PTTD) and pathologies that create medial / lateral instability or varus / valgus deformity.  Available exclusively Custom-from-cast.

This custom AFO has free motion dorsi / plantar flexion with rigid medial-lateral control. The posted UCBL footplate is combined with a unilateral upright for a three point pressure system that enhances the proven therapeutic value of the UCBL. The most common application is PTTD but it is also effective for bracing many conditions that cause M-L instability.

Unique Features of The Aligner AFO:

  • Ultra lightweight and very high strength-to-weight ratio due to advanced carbon fiber construction
  • High UCBL style footplate
  • Unilateral free motion articulation
  • Heel posting
  • Minimal bulk
  • Optional dorsi assist spring

The Aligner AFO is designed to:

  • Correct medial and lateral deformities
  • Stabilize the ankle throughout the gait cycle
  • Reduce pain associated with degenerative / arthritic ankle
