Townsend polio-style braces are designed for mobility-challenged patients who require control for hyperextension and/or genu recurvatum. You can consider the patient’s physical needs and life-style in selecting a traditional full shell or Premier Series brace design. Both braces feature our patented hinge motion and suspension technology.

Fabrication

Townsend’s polio-style knee braces are custom fabricated with an anterior thigh band and posterior tiba shell from a cast mold or digital leg scan.
