The difference between Insoles, Orthotics and Bioengineered Devices

 
Orthotics Versus Advanced New
Bioengineered Devices (BED)



There is a significant difference between what type of foot device is being used and the biomechanical and ergonomic control of that device on load bearing structures.   Picking the right device insures the results you want.
Dr Craig Lowe, Medical Biomechanical Researcher and Developer

There are Four Insole Group Types

  1. Pre-Fabridated Orthotic Insoles
  2. Accommodative Orthotics
  3. Orthotics made from Plaster Molding, Foam Boxes or Laser
  4. Bio-Engineered Devices - 3D Precision

Degrees of Efficacy driven by precision

What is wrong with Orthotics made from Plaster, Boxes, Laser Imaging.

27 Error Points built upon a "Art Form"
which is over 60 years old.    3D Imaging has changed the accuracy of manufacturing using more reliable and stable Static and Dynamic data.

Digital Orthotics - Classic Hand Plaster Manufacturing
"We also make Orthotics from Plaster Molds, however like most labs, we do not guarantee results as we do with Bio Engineered Devices from 3DO Imaging"




 
"Understanding how the foot works, (function), along with the analysis of Static and Dynamic Physics is critical in reducing the errors of manufacturingDr Craig Lowe, Biomechanical Researcher

In Conclusion
 
Effective treatment of load bearing musculoskeletal pain is a difficult area to treat.   Using modern 3D weight bearing imaging using 3DO (3D Orthodynamics) is making a sugnificant impact in the quality of care.   This is done through the analysis of;
 
  1. Mass Displacement Analysis
  2. Motion Analysis
  3. Pressure Analysis (Linear and Sheer)
  4. Body Balance
  5. Symmetry
  6. Gait Analysis
  7. 3D Geometry
