Easy Fit orthotics (TALEF)

An intrinsically medially posted orthotic designed for hard to fit, narrow footwear.

The Problem:
Orthotic control of the foot can be difficult to achieve within many shoes. The interface between foot and shoe is important and must allow for freedom of natural movement. Failure to allow for this creates pressure points on the skin and discomfort for the patient.

Trio 3/4 length orthotics (TRIO 3_4)

The TRIO orthotic is designed to resist excessive valgus rotation. It does this by inverting the calcaneus within the heel cup. In this way mid tarsal joint integrity is maintained and damaging compensations are avoided. TRIO also supports the proximal medial arch of the foot providing navicular stability. It is essential to allow for the first MTP joint to extend during propulsion. TRIO is designed to facilitate this by means of a cushioned recess for the first ray.

Inverted (varus) orientation of the forefoot may be treated by using the medial forefoot post to replace the Poron® infill under the first MTP joint. Alternatively propulsion through the hallux can be encouraged by using the forefoot lateral post where necessary. Only one of these forefoot posts should be used on each device.

If symptoms fail to respond it is possible to increase subtalar joint control by applying the additional biplanar rearfoot post to the demarcated area on the underside of the orthotic. This provides further extrinsic posting control.

Conditions treatable with TRIO:

• 1st MTP joint pain
