John Kenney is a BOC Certified Orthotist (C15786) specializing in the treatment of contractures due to immobility and neurological dysfunction and gait rehabilitating lower extremity bracing. He is an orthotic designer and inventor of DynaPro Orthotics, a line of static braces with dynamic features that will effectively reverse contractures complicated by abnormal tone and spasticity. He has been awarded 7 patents for orthotic device design, including orthotics incorporating inhibitory electrotherapy to effectively treat neuro-contractures. DynaPro Orthotics have a unique non-linear negative torque tension curve as the devices are flexed, which provides neuro-inhibiting benefits for the spastic patient.
To achieve meaningful, lasting outcomes, clinicians must deploy an orthotic strategy that continues therapeutic mechanical tension long after the active therapy session concludes.
