What they do

The purpose of an orthotics

The basic purpose of an orthotics device is to support, align, and improve the function of an affected body part, making it easier to take part in daily activities, hobbies, work tasks, and more. Orthotics can also improve users’ quality of life, empowering them to be as active as they want and are able to be – whether that means moving safely around their house or being a high-performance athlete. For people experiencing mobility challenges or physical strain, an orthotics device can also reduce pain and help prevent further injury.

Lower limb orthotics are generally used by people experiencing joint instability, muscle weakness, or mobility issues due to conditions like stroke, osteoarthritis, cerebral palsy, or traumatic injury.
