Dorsiflexion/plantarflexion extension above the knee brace

A brace for treating foot and ankle conditions by stretching a gastrocnemius muscle, a soleus muscle, and a plantaris muscle, the brace comprising:

• a receiver, an adjustable slider, a boot, wherein the receiver is configured to attach to the boot, wherein the boot includes openings for fixing an angle of dorsiflexion for an ankle of a user;
• wherein the boot includes a bottom plate,
• wherein an ankle hinge of the receiver and the boot create an heel opening for a heel of a user;
• the adjustable slider configured to be attached adjacent to the receiver above the heel, the adjustable slider defining a center slot extending along a substantial length of the adjustable slider, wherein the adjustable slider extends vertically to change an overall length of the brace to accommodate different leg lengths of different users;
• a clip configured for connecting the adjustable slider and the receiver;
• and
• a wedge supported by the boot, wherein the brace locks a knee in extension while also locking an ankle of a user in a dorsiflexion position at times or a normal position at other times;
• wherein the brace permits a 40 degree change in flexion angle allowing for 20 degrees of dorsiflexion and 20 degrees of plantarflexion.
