OrthoticMe is designed to work with both the foot and the shoe. All shoes are different and all feet are different, so you not only need a custom solution for the foot, you need a custom solution for the foot and the shoe! OrthoticMe can be customized for any type of shoe, to work with any foot. The foot orthotic is the first modular orthotic that gives the patient full control of the solution to his or her foot pain.

The traditional cleat is horrible for foot health because it has no support. A custom made orthotic wont fit in the cleat and off the shelf solutions do nothing. OrthoticMe takes up very little room in the shoe while still providing the support the foot needs (or at least the most support possible with a small cleat). OrthoticMe is also very light weight. Performance in athletics is improved just as a skiier tunes his skiis. Pressure points in the right areas of the foot can give the athlete an advantage in speed and quickness as well as reduce pain and increase overall foot health. OrthoticMe works great at reducing plantar fasciitis before it occurs in athletes.

 

OrthoticMe is the first modular foot orthotic to hit the market. With this “lego-like” modular system, the patient or practitioner can build a custom solution from the ground up. This allows the orthotic to work with virtually any shoe. Most custom orthotics are made for a specific foot but do not take into account the shape of the shoe, shoe insole, or shoe insert.   OrthoticMe will work with most any shoe insert and can be customized to both the shoe and the foot. OrthoticMe utilizes both pre-manufactured velcro and composite materials (like carbon fiber) allowing the customer to fully customize the orthotic in virtually any possible shape.

OrthoticMe - custom fit orthotics that work well with existing inserts and insoles.  The patient or practitioner can build a custom fit solution from the ground up.  This allows the custom fit orthotic to work with virtually any shoe insert or shoe insole.  Most custom orthotics are made for a specific foot but do not take into account the shape of the shoe or the contours of the insert or insole inside of the shoe.

Insightful Products launch its new foot orthotic technology that allows the patient or practitioner to create a custom orthotic in just minutes without the need to take foot molds, modify plaster, heat and mold materials, grind, glue or buff. This modular foot orthotic can be fully customized on the spot without the need for any equipment. The patient or practitioner can build and make custom adjustments in just seconds to provide the proper foot correction eliminating foot pain. Using a proprietary velcro and composite system, the Orthotic Me can be built from the ground up to suit not only the specific patient but also the specific shoe the patient may wear.

In this week’s episode, we demonstrate how the Step-Smart brace (treatment) for drop foot can be adjusted to track better on the leg. The existing orthotic should be removed from the shoe before inserting the brace. The Step-Smart AFO has a good arch support and foot orthotic built into the braces footplate. This needs to be aligned properly so that the calf section tracks on the leg properly.
