Orthoses act as the interface between the body and the ground and so offer us the chance to influence motion. Our devices are semi – flexible and in many circumstances can be milled while you wait. We use a combination of traditional and contemporary materials to achieve varying degrees of shock attenuation and correction. Prescription and assembly is based on desired function, anatomical variance of the foot, shoe volume and symptoms being treated. All sports are assessed from an understanding of the sport and this is reflected in the multitude of devices supplied. We use a cad cam system to manufacture orthoses, ensuring accuracy and repeatability. Multiple devices may be formed for repeat prescriptions.

We also use a vacuum forming process for on the spot orthotic prescription. Assessment includes biomechanical analysis, muscle strength and flexibility testing, lower limb joint assessment and video gait analysis. This process takes up to 1.5 hours.

Activities found to benefit from orthotic treatment are:

Walking
Running
Cycling
Racquet sports
Weight training
Snow / Water sports
Hill walking
Golf
Military Training
