Thank you to all who responded. It was all very helpful and greatly
appreciated. The physiotherapist did order a LEMA strap for his patient.
Below are the responses I received. Thanks again!!!

Try this site. the strap should work with someone with spastisity, although
it
has a slight amount of elastic to assist with hip flexion.

I am Ray Joyce, CO,LO from New Braunfels, Texas. I am the designer and
manufacturer of the LEMA Strap. I designed it for a P.T. friend to help
train stroke patients to walk and have been using them for over 25 years. I
have used the strap with spasticity but best results in conjunction with an
AFO. Here is a link to Westons in UK:

for the inquiry. For other specific questions you may contact me at:

You can get them from Samons Preston, or you can contact Ray Joyce@

without an AFO.
