Total Orthotics offers a complete service to help relieve pain and problems associated with biomechanical injuries and long term conditions. Views are my own.
👣 What is an Orthotist? ✨
Orthotists are healthcare professionals who specialise in assessing, designing and fitting orthoses; including braces, splints and insoles to help people move better, reduce pain, and improve their quality of life 📈
Whether it’s helping an athlete prevent injury, supporting children’s development, or enabling someone to walk again after surgery, Orthotists combine medical knowledge, biomechanics and cutting edge technology to make it happen! 👟
Today we shine a light on 4 of our Orthotist clinical partners; Laura Aggett of LEWis Brand, Jo Lucas of @Lakesorthotics, Rehana Ali of The Orthotics Clinic and Eleanor Weinberg of @totalorthotics1 💡
These 4 lovely ladies each run their own clinical practices, utilising #Footscan technology to optimise their biomechanical assessments and are experts in prescribing our #Phits 3D printed orthoses 🏆
Being an Orthotist is not just about making devices, it’s about helping people get back to living their lives to the fullest! 💪

No Stone Left Unturned 👣👟
From a podium finish at the @utmbmontblanc to winning the @wser 100 mile race in California, @TomEvansUltra has achieved some staggering results since he began working with Gait and Motion Clinics in 2020 🏅
Yesterday we welcomed Tom back to see our clinical partner @totalorthotics1 at Pyramid Performance for a full biomechanical assessment in preparation for the year ahead 🤝
This included a detailed Footscan gait analysis and a fresh pair of Phits 3D printed orthoses to replace his previous pair of Phits which have travelled the world over the past 5 years 🌍
🎥 Behind the scenes video coming soon! 👀
👟 Step into the future with Phits! 👣
It’s time to leave pain and discomfort behind and walk a new path of personalised footcare with Phits orthotics. These aren’t your standard insoles, they’re designed based on your unique dynamic movement, tailored precisely for you AND your footwear! 👞

Overwhelmed and humbled to welcome 300 of our clinical partners to our first ever conference in Birmingham today! 🥲
A huge thank you to our fantastic lineup of speakers, trade partners and clinical community. We hope everyone had an insightful, enjoyable day ❤️
@MPearsonPO@tomgoom It’s really interesting seeing the impact they are having. Times definitely coming down for some but they are seeing more proximal injuries on the rise from athletes that are not strong enough to cope with the changes they make to your running. 🤷♀️

@rebekahkphysio @suzy_speirs That makes sense, with typical CMT foot profile. I do wonder if a more bespoke brace could be done for you without excessive thickness but I guess would come at a cost 🤷♀️. Keep us updated with how you get on 😊
@rebekahkphysio Do you think the burning is a sensory response and therefore as @suzy_speirs suggested something like a Richie brace/custom AFO with better foot profile would help or due to the footplate restricting any muscle activation?? I find your AFO feedback really insightful. Thank you.
