Orthotics

It all starts with our evaluation. During this time we ask a lot of questions about your lifestyle and personal preferences. Then we listen very carefully to your answers. It is during this evaluation that we are able to determine your real needs and make appropriate suggestions regarding your custom orthosis.

Once it has been determined what needs to be done we design and fabricate your orthosis. More often than not, the device is custom made. It is for this reason that we employ an experienced ABC Board Certified Orthotist with the professionalism, compassion and skill to provide you with a device that will make a positive difference in your life. .

The process of designing and building a custom orthosis is straightforward. First, in order to get a positive model of the limb in question we take a plaster impression, use tracings or measurements. This impression is then filled with plaster to make a positive model. The next step is to vacuum pull a plastic sheet over the model. It is at this point that we cut, trim and buff the device for the best-fit possible  And it doesn't end there. Our Orthotist firmly believe in working for you as part of your rehab team; with your physician, therapist, and counselor. Many of our previous patients have appreciated and benefited from having this team of professionals on their side.
