The main goal of Foot Function Lab begins by casting in a non-weight bearing subtalar neutral position. These orthtoics are used to balance the musculoskeletal system, control pronation or supination, support the mid metatarsal section, balance the forefoot, and relieve major foot problems such as Heel Spurs, Tendonitis, Fasciitis, etc…
The Custom Easy System is designed to offer a quick diagnosis and present a easy prescription to fit your patient’s specific needs and lifestyle. An orthotic may be ordered in any length, form, etc. This allows for ordering the best design and materials to accurately fit and control the patient’s foot. System II orthotics are 100% guaranteed to be custom made from each individual’s impression, nothing comes off the shelf premade. Orthotics with no heel cups due to precise manufacturing, velcro is included with all models to maintain proper fit without heel cups. These orthotics are manufactured with a metatarsal bar that can be revised to any degree of forefoot control. Any accomodations will be made at no charge for lesions or other conditions that need relief from pain or pressure.
These orthotics are manufactured from a 1-inch and up foam impression box, a plaster cast, or our 3D Light Scanner. Easy System II made with heel cups are made the same as Easy System I.
