摘要：
An embodiment in accordance with the present invention provides an orthotic device that provides a physical barrier between the thighs of the user. The orthotic device provides a physical barrier that separates the legs in order to minimize and prevent scissoring gait. The orthotic device includes specially designed blocks. The blocks separate the legs, fit comfortably against the legs, and slide back and forth against one another during the gait cycle to allow for walking movement. The blocks can be secured to the legs with straps. The straps can be exchangeable, so that a user can change them to match clothing or other color preferences. The orthotic device is useable in both indoor and outdoor settings.
