| ORTHOTICS |
Rehab United offers custom orthotics to help treat various ailments. From toe, foot, and ankle pain, to knee, hip, and low back pain, orthotics are often an essential component in a comprehensive functional treatment plan. When indicated, orthotics are an effective way to influence the foot/ankle complex so that the body is better able to function in a biomechanically sound way. Orthotics can take a foot that is clinically far removed from a neutral position and assist the foot/ankle complex to function in a position that is closer to a neutral position. From the rigid, high-arched foot, to the floppy, flat or overpronated foot, orthotics can help the foot function in such a way as to assist the entire kinetic chain to function more efficiently and effectively. We take numerous precise measurements when doing an orthotics fitting, including doing a full functional profile. We then cast the foot in a non-weightbearing, sub-talar neutral position, which is the most effective way to capture the various foot/ankle dysfunctions. All orthotics fittings are accompanied by a functional home exercise program to help ensure satisfactory outcomes. |
