      • At Your Podiatrist we use Swiss designed Orthema system to scan and produce our orthotics.

      • A digital 3D scan is taken of your foot in a semi-weight bearing position to best replicate the shape of your foot
      • A podiatrist will then manipulate your 3D scan with the Orthema software, utilizing their expert knowledge on the ideal foot position for optimal function, in combination with results from your biomechanical assessment, to create your custom made foot orthoses
    • Step 4: Orthotic Milling
      • Milled on site here at YourPodiatrist we have full control of how your devices are made!
    • Step 5: Orthotic dispense and fitting
    • Step 6: Review
      • A Podiatrist will review how you’re orthotics are going at a no charge, one month, post dispense appointment. They will be able to problem solve any concerns that you have and hear about how well the orthotics have helped you!
