From Plaster Cast to Finished Orthotics
Your orthotics are custom-made on site and designed to address your specific foot and lower limb condition.
Using a 3D casting technique, a plaster model of your feet is created and carefully prepared to guide fabrication. Material selection and modification of the plaster cast are key steps in producing orthotics that provide proper support, stability, and long-term comfort.
Each pair is fabricated individually, with the goal of reducing pain and improving function. The type of orthotics made depends on your diagnosis and clinical needs. This short video offers a brief look at our on-site fabrication process.
