Custom Orthosis
A custom-made orthosis is a highly specialized device that is manufactured from a cast or mould of an individual client. It is exclusive to the particular patient and cannot be fitted to another individual. While selected health practitioners provide custom made orthoses for either the foot or the upper limb, only orthotist or prosthetists are qualified to fit custom made orthoses for the entire body. Therefore, a clinical assessment and consultation by an orthotist or a prosthetist will ensure that your entire body or limb segment is properly examined and you are offered the right range of orthotic treatment.
