Why is the Performance Orthotics computer based system better than casting?
New research is showing casting of a foot in a non-weight bearing position to be an inexact science influenced by assessor error. The Performance Orthotics computer based system limits assessor error by measuring how your foot functions while you’re weight bearing. We look at exactly where, when and how much weight is developing on your feet as you walk. This information allows us to create an orthotic to normalize foot function and proper off-load areas of excessive loading reducing your discomforts.
