Home Orthotics Solution overview WalkOn Reaction junior Prosthetics Orthotics Therapy About WalkOn Reaction Junior pediatric ankle foot orthosis Incredibly dynamic! The WalkOn Reaction Junior is a pediatric ankle foot orthosis designed for children with mild neurological deficits of the lower limbs. It offers children a higher level of support than conventional orthoses, reducing the risk of stumbling and falling and improving movement patterns. The dynamic orthosis improves your child's dorsiflexion and uses ground reaction forces to stabilize both the knee and ankle joints. Easy to don and doff, the WalkOn Reaction Junior helps your child achieve a more stable, largely physiological gait. Innovative spring element to improve dorsiflexion and rollover movement Design adapts to different sizes and anatomical conditions High level of wearer comfort Contact Us Ask for our Consumer Support Specialist 800 328 4058 (US) Send an email Stay in touch Sign up to receive occasional updates from Ottobock.

The special design supports extension and flexion of the knee while walking, allowing your child's gait pattern to become smoother. This also supports children with higher activity levels who require more support for knee extension. Fewer compensating movements Compensating movements often result in signs of wear. The WalkOn Reaction Junior can reduce these movements with its high energy return. The energy stored during heel strike is released by the orthosis during the rollover movement of the foot, allowing your child to walk more symmetrically. The unique alignment of the orthosis also provides a more natural posture while standing. Enhanced safety Your child’s safety is increased as the WalkOn Reaction Junior supports and lifts their foot during the swing phase while walking. The risk of catching the tip of the foot, for example, on carpet edges or uneven ground, is reduced. Appropriate for shoes The orthosis can be worn in standard shoes, and a sturdy shoe is perfectly adequate. You only need to make sure the shoe has a reinforced heel. To put on the orthosis, you should ideally start by positioning the WalkOn Reaction Junior in the shoe. The child can then simply step in with their foot. Lightweight and discreet The WalkOn Reaction Junior is lightweight, slim, and discreet under clothing. A shin pad made of climate control material makes it even more comfortable while reducing heat development and perspiration. Robust and durable The WalkOn Reaction Junior is especially robust. The orthosis has proven its durability in various tests and long-term functional testing. Giving children hope again.
