Corrective foot orthoses are made from a traditional three-dimensional cast molding or a state-of-the-art Laser Scanner (C.A.D. System) of ones feet (see Sharp Shape). These techniques have proven to be the most “medically accepted” and biomechanically accurate methods in producing custom orthotic devices. From a positive plaster/composite mold, orthotic devices are fabricated using vacuum forming methods. Based on the individual’s body weight, foot type, footwear and activities, the latest materials are selected for the thermal molding process. The finished product is ultimately individualized by material selection and design and. The orthotics are accompanied with a full laboratory warranty against breakage and comfort ”. Patients who seek orthotic therapy should be very weary of direct selling programs or weight bearing computerized systems to “order orthotics”. Two-dimensional measurements do not equate to accurate three-dimensional devices. |
