Indications:
The WalkOn Reaction supports patients with
dorsiflexor weakness with no or slight-to-moderate
spasticity. It can also be used for slight impairment of
the plantar flexion muscles, for foot deformities that
can be corrected with insoles and a lateral support
element and for slight impairment of knee extension,
for example constant fatigue of the knee extensors
during long periods of standing or walking. The
indication frequently occurs after a stroke, traumatic
brain injury, multiple sclerosis, neuromuscular
atrophy or peroneal paralysis.
The WalkOn Reaction is suitable for indoor and
outdoor use for patients with a high level of activity,
who need support for knee extension or flexion in
the mid-stance phase and during toe-off or heel
strike. The frontal support element allows it to
effectively influence the knee with the help of ground
reaction forces. The support element is noticeably
longer than in the other WalkOn orthoses, making it
possible to exert greater influence on deviations of
the frontal axes in the knee and ankle joint
