Orthotics
Custom orthotic assessment, design, fabrication and fitting across scoliosis and spinal, pediatric, lower-limb and foot orthotics.
Specialist focus
Scoliosis orthotics is one of the important specialist capabilities associated with Ortho Care Home, including experience with Boston-type scoliosis braces and digital scoliosis workflows using Rodin4D.
Digital tools support clinical expertise here — they do not replace clinical judgment. The patient's digital model is clinically modified, and brace geometry and trimlines are developed for that individual before manufacturing and fitting.
Digital scoliosis workflow
Step 01
Clinical evaluation and identification of orthotic requirements.
Step 02
Digital capture of patient anatomy.
Step 03
Clinical modification of the patient's digital model.
Step 04
Patient-specific digital brace design.
Step 05
Development and adjustment of brace geometry and trimlines.
Step 06
Translation of the digital design into the fabrication workflow.
Step 07
Final fitting, assessment and patient-specific adjustment.
Areas of care
01
Custom orthotic solutions for children requiring support, alignment correction, mobility assistance or rehabilitation — with continued assessment, fitting, modification, monitoring and follow-up as a child's needs change. Care is patient- and family-centered.
02
Assessment and patient-specific orthotic solutions for conditions affecting lower-limb mobility, alignment, stability, support and function, designed to clinical and functional requirements.
03
Patient-specific foot orthotic assessment and design intended to support alignment, comfort and function.
04
Some patients require solutions that standard devices cannot adequately address. We design and fabricate around anatomy, diagnosis, functional and mobility requirements and rehabilitation objectives.
Research direction
Future digital approaches may involve digital foot scanning, digital patient modeling, CAD design, patient-specific digital fabrication and advanced manufacturing. These are development and research directions rather than confirmed operational services.
Next step
Whether the requirement is scoliosis bracing, pediatric support or a custom device, we start with a clinical assessment.
