What Is a CAM Boot (Moon Boot) and How Does It Help?

A Controlled Ankle Motion (CAM) boot is a walking boot that protects and supports the foot or ankle while you continue to mobilise. Our podiatrists select the right model, fit it correctly, and make comfort adjustments if needed.

Also called: Moon boot, orthopaedic boot, fracture boot, walking cast, CAM walker.

As a general guide, Low-Top suits forefoot issues while High-Top supports ankle injuries. Always follow advice from your health professional.
