What are Orthotics?
An orthotic device (commonly known as a brace or splint) is an orthopedic device that is worn on the body. The purpose of an orthotic is to provide support, protection and/or improve function. There are a large variety of devices available depending on the diagnosis and physical needs of the individual. Foot orthotics are the most commonly made device for children who attend our clinic, however, we are also able to provide other products, including hand splints and knee immobilizers.
Orthotics Clinic
