Yes, each orthosis is individually tailored to your requirements. This should be discussed with you by your therapist or orthotist at your assessment / measuring appointment. When you can independently go to the toilet, then it is advised that an open crotch is fitted so that you do not have to remove your orthosis when going to the bathroom. This helps to ensure you remain independent particularly if you have balance problems or problems using your hands. For young children, there are a range of fastening options to facilitate nappy changing.
