Orthotics

Orthotic intervention can be beneficial for several reasons. It can help you heal and recover from surgery, compete at the highest level of your game, or help you get back to activities of daily living. Whatever your goals may be, there are orthotic solutions that may be able to help. We treat a full spectrum of gait and musculoskeletal conditions present at birth or caused by illness or injury, with an extensive range of innovative, personalized solutions to help you achieve your goals.

Orthotic devices range from shoe inserts to back braces to infant helmets, all of which serving a unique function. Orthotics are usually prescribed to stabilize weakened structures, correct or limit deformity, or limit pain. Many are designed to enhance one’s ability to walk or function following injury, disease, or general weakness.
