The Global-Health Booklet Regarding Clubfoot Treatment This free
downloadable booklet can be read on-line or printed for reference. It thoroughly
explains the Ponseti Method and is used as a teaching guide for medical
personnel who use the method. A very informative source for parents to help
them determine how their child's clubfoot should be treated, and if their doctor is
in fact using the Ponseti Method or not.
This book is also available in many different languages.
