Same to you!!

Actually everybody with footdrop is different and it sounds like you are basing your comment off your unique experience. You are correct that a lot of people with foot drop also have excessive toe flexion (when the toes curl). The good news is there are things you can do to improve that and we offer a lot of different workouts to help. I personally have MS and have foot drop since 2002 and some days are better than others. I am simply sharing an AFO that really works for me and allows me to walk further distances as I am determined to not let my foot drop get worse. Have a great day!

@@theneurostudio_ I've had surgeries to correct it. This is not for people with footdrop

@@karenkeith1842​​⁠ hi this is Meghann the other co-founder of the Neuro Studio, and while you are certainly entitled to your opinion, I disagree as I work with people with foot drop everyday offering them life changing results. If you are interested in our exercises and work outs specifically for footdrop you can check out our online studio: online.theneurostudio.com Have a great day.

Hi! Meghann has worked with thousands of people with MS and Mariska our other co-founder has MS. We prefer to personalize every exercises based off our client’s response. These exercises are samples of concepts that need to be personalized. You can try these in a wheel chair with some modifications placing a yoga block under your foot. Also make sure your hips are active and eyes focused on one spot. One idea is pressing your leg into your arm or arm rest while trying to move your foot. If you are looking for a personalized program you can email us at info@theneurostudio.com to set you out with one of our top teachers!

Yes you can overdue it so take your time and make sure you address your whole body not just the foot. Sadly more traditional methods focus too much on just lifting the foot and that can cause a little of discomfort and frustration.

@@theneurostudio_ Thank you for a very fast reply. How often should I exercise for drop foot. I also use a E.M.S. I have it 2 times a day for 1 hour each time. Is that ok? Really appreciate your input! 🙏🏻❤️👍🇺🇸

@@user-iw3mr2lv6f Hey. It really depends on what you are doing. At The Neuro Studio we feel the foot should be addressed in all exercises and you should work the foot in isolation but you also need to address what the rest of the body is doing when exercising the foot, especially the hip. To make a more personalized recommendation we would have to see you move, so you can email info@theneurostudio.com and we could set you up with an evaluation from one of our top level 3 teachers.

Hi! What a compliment that you didn't notice that I have footdrop. I have been living with MS since 2002 and walking can be very difficult.

I have foot drop due to a army injury. I am no recently getting into border patrol. What afo would be best for jogging?

That is because we are not endorsing a product, just sharing the personal experience from someone ACTUALLY living with foot drop. You can find the AFO here: a.co/d/dkF6Jct. Have a great day.

Ugh, that is an issue. Have you tried toe separators throughout the day? We LOVE the Naboso brand and you can get 10% off with the code NEUROSTUDIO.

We do not sell it, just sharing info. Mariska purchased hers here: a.co/d/b5A5w6f

Thank you for sharing your opinion!!

Neither the xtern or this keeps my foot stiff enough on the upswing

@@DeStroy109 Sorry to hear that but honestly everyone with foot drop is different and Mariska just wanted to offer her opinion based off her over 25 years experience both as a practitioner and a patient. We do not sell or make any money from this brace. Instead we believe in a full body approach to better support both the brain and foot. If you are interested in our approach you can check out our online studio: online.theneurostudio.com and reach out to info@theneurostudio.com anytime!!!

Hi! We don’t sell this brace. Mariska was just sharing her favorite. She purchased it for around $300.

yes change the height of the heel and make sure you support it with a wedge or a back. I would also recommend working on more hip control and communication with the upper body! Keep in mind, it is best to have someone assess how your entire body is responding to offer the best approach.

Sorry we are not sure as we do not sell, just sharing info. Mariska purchased hers here: a.co/d/b5A5w6f

We do not sell, just sharing info but it can be found on: a.co/d/b5A5w6f

We understand, which is why Mariska likes this specific AFO. We do not sell it or have a partnership, just sharing info!

We are not sure as we do not sell them. Mariska purchased hers here: a.co/d/b5A5w6f

We are so glad you are enjoying it! Do you prefer seated workouts?

@@theneurostudio_ I like both, anything really to loosen up and strengthen my hips, and legs. ankles, feet. I can stand but need to hold onto a wall or chair. Your content feels very relevant to how my body works or not. tkx

I got them here: a.co/d/1B4I6a9

Hey Jerry! I’d love to chat - you can reach us at info@theneurostudio.com! Also, check out @theneurostudio on instagram, we have a lot of stroke specific content.

Hi! You can purchase the AFO that Mariska really likes on Amazon. Here is a link: PUSH ortho Ankle Foot Orthosis for Comfortable Support. Can be Worn with Shoes. Comfortable and Flexible AFO Brace for Drop Foot (Peroneal Palsy), Stroke, Multiple Sclerosis. (Right Size 1) a.co/d/gUzR6UY

Sam - this video is just helping people find one that works for them as many are not able to walk without the increases sensory input the AFO offers. But as we describe in the video they often inhibit other movements which is why they should be worn in conjunction with a good movement practice.

When I don't have shoes on, I do what I call the model high step. I pick my foot up with every step. It is automatic since I've done it for so long.

@@mareellen63 that is very common as the brain will pick an alternative strategy to help you move forward. You can also try sensory socks, like the Naboso brand proprioceptive socks or insoles to give your feet feedback without wearing a shoe in addition to a good exercise program.

The Naboso socks are too expensive. I've been taking Nervive for at least a year. I can feel my feet again.

You can't learn to not drag your foot if you don't have the ability to lift your foot. Your brain learning your new foot position isn't going to help you not to snag your toes, that's going to happen anyway I can guarantee that. Wearing a brace doesn't give a false sense of security, it gives you actual security when wearing the brace. Of course when you take it off you're not going to have that security anymore.

We agree and considering our co-founder has had MS for over 20 years and has foot drop, so she knows first hand how exercises can be difficult. However, this video is to help people understand where and what we are trying to achieve with each movement. This is important, as we are an education company to help movement pros offer better solutions for people living with neurological conditions. We have many videos on instagram and facebook with our client’s but many of them do not want to be featured on social media and RUclips, which we respect!

I agree totally. Foot drop can also be a sign of Charot Marie Tooth Syndrom. Not cured by exercise.....

you can find the one I like on Amazon a.co/d/9HqNUOT. Just make sure you specify right or left.
