If a defect occurs in the ALFA-Flex or BETA-Flex foot abduction orthosis, please contact 

your orthopaedic technician or orthopaedic shoemaker. 

Foot abduction splints should not be hit on hard objects (e.g. by the child bouncing on the 

floor). The splint could break! 

When the orthosis is not being worn, it must be kept out of the reach of children.

The foot abduction orthosis may only be worn with socks!

The foot supports are not running shoes and should only be worn in combination with the 

splint!

Please do not use any harsh cleaning agents, as these can attack the plastic and the 

leather.

Safe fitting of the ALFA-Flex Brace and BETA-Flex Brace foot abduction splint can and 

must only be carried out by the fitting orthopaedic shoemaker or orthopaedic technician. 

Please do not change/adjust the settings of the ALFA-Flex Brace and BETA-Flex Brace 

foot abduction splint yourself, as this could lead to a relapse! If you have any questions or 

problems regarding the settings, please contact your orthopaedic shoemaker, orthopaedic 

technician or prescribing paediatric orthopaedist to fit them for you. Semeda accepts no 

liability for unauthorised and improper fitting!
