Time flies and we are keeping busy with new products. The winter has been tough here in NE but spring is around the corner.

One of our latest products, The Achilles Contracture Management Orthosis, ACMO, has taken off and our customers get good results. It is a great alternative to serial casting. The ACMO was developed by Frank Twyeffort, a practicing CPO in Springfield, MA, and Pro-Tech is the designated manufacturer.

At ACPOC in Salt Lake City in March we are introducing our Dynamic Realignment Orthosis, the DRO, for the pediatric patient population. The design and materials of the DRO provide sensory and proprioceptive feedback, and musculo-skeletal alignment & support. Lydia Dean, therapy specialist, will attend and conduct one-on-one training during the conference. We hope you will be there.
