Foot band for use with Dictus Ankle Strap. Converts the orthopaedic aid for indoor use. Dictus Band helps those suffering from Drop Foot to raise their foot directly after toe off - eliminating everyday obstructions such as doorsteps, carpets and pavements. The Dictus Band is a different concept from other braces. Where the normal standard A.F.O. - which are non-flexible - holds the foot straight to stop the foot dropping, the Dictus Band uses a spring action with the rubber band and hook. This gives a more natural action and as a side benefit allows a person to do things that would be impossible with a polyethylene A.F.O. (i.e.: drive a car with their right foot) The rubber band - the active part of the orthosis - on the Dictus Band helps keep the front of the foot in an upward position. When a person puts their foot on the ground, the rubber band helps raise the toes. Dictus Indoor provides support when the user is moving about indoors or without shoes. NOTE: You must have the Outdoor Dictus Band to correctly use the Indoor Dictus Band
