Willow Woods R&D staff studied the way children
walk at various stages of development. To provide the
necessary level of function for these two phases of
the child's development, Ohio Willow Wood is introducing
two feet in the P-POD line. |

| The High-tech
Pediatric Solution
Ohio Willow Woods Research and Development
staff studied the way children walk at various stages of development.
When children first begin walking, initial foot-to-floor contact
tends to occur in the midfoot to forefoot area. The heel may not
even contact the ground at all. In the absence of a progression
from heel to toe, there is very little need for any type of advanced
foot function. However, as children develop a more mature gait
that follows the normal progression of heel strike through toe
off, there is a need to provide them with a foot that offers some
toe response.
