Feet that will not stay on the footplates undo the rest of a seating setup. Ankle Huggers hold the ankle and foot in position so the lower body stays settled when the client moves their arms and trunk, which matters for clients with extensor tone, involuntary movement or poor lower limb control.
The design is built around comfort as much as control. Laminar pads spread pressure right around the ankle so it is not concentrated on a strap edge, and a flex zone across the back panel leaves the Achilles free to move. Synthetic leather reinforcement adds support at the points that take the most load, and the low profile ErgoLatch buckle holds firmly but opens without a struggle for a carer working at floor level.
They come as a pair with the mounting kit, and hook and loop straps take the day to day adjustment. Five sizes cover paediatric through to adult, so measure the client before ordering.
