A dorsiflexion recreation device is disclosed.

Facility is also provided for exercising plantar flexion, dorsi flexion, and hip abduction and adduction.

The bias member (68) is configured to provide resistance against dorsiflexion of the foot.

The simplified movement of the joint is a back and forth rolling or a dorsal/plantar flexing.

Specifically, the anterior tibial muscle goes into action during the dorsal flexion.

It works like a hinge to allow your foot to move up (dorsiflexion) and down (plantarflexion).

The big toe is usually extended, dorsal flexion is significantly reduced but plantar preserved.

It assists the flexion and extension of the knee and the dorsiflexion of the ankle using electrostimulation.

A therapeutic limb brace for gradually extending flexion contractures of a patient's knee or elbow, and for increasing dorsiflexion of the foot.

This device helps the patient perform dorsiflexion when walking.

Dorsiflexion uses the muscles in the front part (anterior) of the foot.

Functionally, the muscles of the leg are either extensors, responsible for the dorsiflexion of the foot, or flexors, responsible for the plantar flexion.

The coupling element includes a stop of a predetermined size to limit dorsiflexion of the calf shank in gait.

An ankle-foot orthosis (10) (AFO) is disclosed for providing external torque that mimics the torque typically produced by the plantarflexor muscles of the leg when the ankle is dorsiflexed.

Straps (80), can hold the patient's legs against the base plate (20), so that the reciprocating action results in alternate planar flexion and dorsal flexion of the foot without movement of the leg in general.
