Custom pediatric AFOs provide ankle stability, correct foot drop, and improve walking patterns in children with neurological or muscular conditions.
Cerebral palsy, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, developmental delays, traumatic brain injury, and post-stroke recovery in children.
The SWASH brace maintains hip abduction and alignment during daily activities, crucial for children with cerebral palsy or hip instability.
Typically prescribed for 6-8 hours daily, including standing therapy, walking practice, and sitting activities. Our pediatric orthotists provide detailed wearing protocols based on individual assessment.
Dedicated pediatric department with child-friendly environment and specialized equipment
3D scanning, precise measurements, and in-house fabrication for perfect fit
Patient, empathetic approach with play-based distraction techniques
Regular monitoring as your child grows with complimentary adjustments

Comprehensive biomechanical assessment with video gait analysis
Comprehensive physical examination, medical history review, and assessment of developmental milestones. Our pediatric orthotist evaluates range of motion, muscle tone, gait pattern, and specific orthotic needs.
Precise measurements using digital scanning or manual casting techniques. We capture exact dimensions while your child is comfortable, ensuring accurate fit for growing anatomy.
In-house fabrication using medical-grade materials. Each device is crafted by experienced technicians following pediatric orthotic standards with attention to comfort, durability, and safety.
Initial fitting appointment where we check alignment, comfort, and function. Adjustments are made immediately to ensure proper fit before your child takes the orthotic home.
Detailed instructions on wearing schedule, application technique, skin care, and activity modifications. We provide written guidelines and demonstrate proper donning/doffing.
Regular monitoring appointments (every 2-3 months) to check fit as your child grows. We make necessary modifications and assess treatment progress with gait analysis.
Hi I am surendra yadav
It was an awesome experience with ability health care.The crew members and Dr Kuldeep , Dr Anushree so nice and humble .
Really I m very happy with our personal experience with ability health care .
I have had a very good overall experience with Ablity health care and Dr. Anushree. I have been using the arch support for about an year now and it has helped me with the heel pain I was suffering from.

The Pavlik Harness is typically worn 23 hours daily (removed only for bathing) for 6-12 weeks, depending on hip dysplasia severity. Ultrasound monitoring every 2-3 weeks determines treatment progress. After hip normalization, gradual weaning begins with night-time wear for an additional 2-4 weeks. Total treatment duration varies per individual case, but early intervention (before 6 months) shows best outcomes.
Clubfoot correction requires the Ponseti method (serial casting) first, achieving initial correction in 95% of cases. Orthotics like DB splint and CTEV shoes maintain this correction and prevent relapse. With consistent brace compliance (night wear for 2-4 years), most children achieve excellent long-term results with normal foot function and appearance. Orthotics alone cannot correct clubfoot but are essential for maintaining surgical or casting corrections.
AFO braces are prescribed when a child shows: persistent foot drop, weak ankle muscles, abnormal gait pattern (toe-walking, tripping), neurological conditions (cerebral palsy, spina bifida), or muscle disorders affecting lower limbs. Typical age range is 18 months to adolescence, once walking attempts begin. A pediatric orthopedic evaluation with gait analysis determines AFO necessity. Early AFO intervention prevents compensatory movement patterns and supports proper motor development.
Pediatric orthotics are specialized medical devices designed to support, align, correct, or improve musculoskeletal function in growing children. They treat conditions like hip dysplasia, clubfoot, cerebral palsy, muscular weakness, gait abnormalities, and limb length discrepancies. Unlike adult orthotics, pediatric devices must accommodate rapid growth, changing anatomy, and developmental milestones while remaining lightweight and child-friendly.
Yes, custom pediatric orthotics are highly recommended for newborns and infants. Custom devices ensure precise fit for delicate anatomy, accommodate rapid growth changes, minimize skin irritation risk, and provide optimal therapeutic positioning. For conditions like hip dysplasia (Pavlik Harness), custom fitting is essential for treatment success. Standard sizes may work for older children in some cases, but newborns benefit significantly from individualized fabrication based on exact measurements and clinical assessment.
Yes, physiotherapy is essential for successful prosthetic use. Our comprehensive rehabilitation program includes: gait training (learning to walk naturally), strength building (muscles needed for prosthetic control), balance exercises (stability and fall prevention), functional training (stairs, uneven terrain, daily activities), and ongoing support as you progress. Most patients need 4-12 weeks of intensive therapy, then periodic follow-ups. Physiotherapy dramatically improves outcomes, confidence, and long-term success.
