It felt easier to walk and they enjoyed the low profile of the SaeboStep!
Since then, I have used the SaeboStep with several of my older kiddos, some who have varying forms of Cerebral Palsy. With the SaeboStep donned, I have noticed improved foot clearance during gait in affected lower extremity and, as a secondary benefit, improvements in arm swing and truncal rotation. Some of the kids have reported that it felt easier to walk, that they enjoyed the low profile of the SaeboStep compared to bulkier SMO’s or Toe-Offs, and that they’d be interested in transitioning to this orthotic.
Thanks Saebo!
