About Orthotics
What is Orthotics? Orthotics is
the design, fabrication, fitting and supervised use of devices that
provide external support or assist weak or abnormal joints and/or
muscle groups. Musculoskeletal disorders, joint weakness, back problems,
or the inability of any joint or muscle group to function correctly
can greatly decrease an individuals quality of life and mobility.
These problems can be caused by congenital factors, traumatic injury,
chronic conditions, sports injuries, or degenerative disease.

Orthotics is a scientific medical field dedicated to helping the victims
of these disorders by providing appropriate corrective, assistive
and supportive devices. In some instances, it is necessary to design
and fabricate a custom orthosis for a specific need. In others, the
orthotist custom fits an off-the-shelf device to the patient's dimensions,
or incorporates additional components to achieve the desired results.Our
skilled professionals will determine the best solution for you.
An orthosis may be worn temporarily until a weakness
or injury is overcome, or on a permanent basis to facilitate impaired
function due to a congenital or degenerative condition. Ask
the Orthotist any questions you may have.
