Uses
Used for moderate to severe over pronators, unstable feet, and people who weigh more than 240lbs.
Contraindication
Tight fitting footwear.
Notes
Rearfoot extrinsic posts add bulk to an orthotic and should always be used with shoes that can accommodate a slightly bulkier device. Options: Neutral: To add stability particularly for patients with rigid/cavus feet. Varus: To correct for moderate to severe over pronators.
