Three Dimensional Casting Techniques
As a three dimensional "functional device" an orthotic is designed to specifically change the function of your foot. They help place the foot in a biomechanically correct position allowing the muscles, tendons, ligaments and bones to work more efficiently and therefore reduce and limit abnormal forces that cause pain and discomfort elsewhere in your body.
Appointments / Costs
The cost of orthosis varies so an appointment is always required to assess what
device is appropriate for you needs. Gait analysis can be useful to assess not
only what treatment is required but can be used to assess the effectiveness of
that treatment.
