Can the SaeboStep be worn by children?Updated a year ago

The SaeboStep can be adjusted to accommodate some pediatric patients.

The SaeboStep brace has been successful for those as young as 4-5 years old. With respect to sizing, extra brace length can be trimmed off for a less bulky look on a child, but for the smallest sizing (6 inches / 15cm - 3-5 years old for an average child) it is useful to keep the extra strap material on so that the additional strap snaps more snuggly without being modified.

For an ankle circumference of 7 inches / 18 cm or more (about 5-6 years and up for an average size ankle), the patient can choose to trim the excess or leave it on.

If needed, using a neoprene or foam ankle piece helps with the circumference issue.
