Service Provision

After initial assessment and walking cast assessment has been completed, a report on the most appropriate treatment option will be provided to the client and medical specialist as appropriate. Direct clinical service provision will commence after the client has agreed to the treatment modality and funding has been approved for the service.

NeuroMuscular Orthotics can provide the full spectrum of lower extremity orthoses. To review our orthosis range, please click on the above link "Orthoses".

Clinical service provision involves the skilled use of sterilised instruments and appropriate infection control procedures. In the majority of cases, a plaster or fibreglass cast will be taken of the affected lower limb segment along with appropriate measurements/circumferences. The negative mould will be filled with plaster and a positive model will be used to manufacture an orthosis that is custom made to your body.

Foot health and footwear education regarding self care techniques and prevention of foot pathology is an important component of individual care. Advice will also be given on appropriate footwear which must accommodate the client's lower extremity orthosis.
