What Is A Certified Pedorthist or Podiatrist?
A Board Certified Pedorthist is exclusively trained in assessing lower-limb skeletal alignment, biomechanical movement patterns, general foot function and how the feet interact with the rest of the body.
Pedorthist and Podiatrist professionals are educated and trained in foot anatomy and pathology, biomechanics, shoe construction and modification, foot orthosis fabrication and materials, and in fitting Diabetic Orthopaedic footwear. We use devices such as Diabetic Orthopaedic footwear and rigid Rocker shoe modifications for the purpose of treating and preventing debilitating conditions related to foot and lower-limb function. If you're looking for custom orthotics or Diabetic foot care, please contact us. |
