Orthotic and prosthetic fittings involve customizing and fitting devices like braces, orthotic insoles, or prosthetic limbs to support or replace impaired body parts.

Conditions Treated:

Orthotic devices can aid in conditions like arthritis, foot deformities, or spinal issues. Prosthetics are used for limb loss.

Equipment Used:

Custom-made braces, insoles, or prosthetic limbs are used in orthotic and prosthetic fittings.

Procedure:

This is a non-surgical procedure. The orthotist or prosthetist assesses the patient’s needs and creates custom-fitted devices.

Recovery Time:

Recovery time is immediate, and patients can often adapt to orthotic or prosthetic devices quickly.
