Adding more Support to your Foot Orthotic Device




     So often in clinical practice, we have either designed orthotic devices, or are evaluating previously mad orthotic devices, and we find that the stability could be improved to help the patient. 4 simple improvements are supporting the arch, adding a temporary Kirby skive, changing the shoes to more stable ones, and power lacing those chosen shoes.
