What is Clubfoot?

Clubfoot is a congenital condition characterized by a twisting or curling of the foot, often affecting one or both feet. It can cause discomfort, pain, and difficulty walking. Clubfoot can occur in isolation or in combination with other congenital conditions, such as cerebral palsy or spina bifida.

• Splinting: Our team creates custom splints to help maintain the corrected position of the foot during sleep or other periods of rest.
• Physical Therapy: We collaborate with physical therapists to develop a customized exercise program to strengthen muscles and improve flexibility.
