Orthotic Therapy
Orthotic therapy plays a central role in managing lower limb conditions, helping to reduce pain, improve function and support long-term patient outcomes. Our courses focus on practical, evidence-based approaches to assessment and prescription, giving you the confidence to make more effective decisions in clinic.
An Introduction to the 6 Principles of Orthotic Therapy
Get a first look at Unmasking MSK: The 6 Principles of Orthotic Therapy. This introductory session led by Advanced MSK Podiatrist and Clinical Educator Louise fisher gives you a practical overview of the framework behind effective orthotic prescription, with insights you can start applying in clinic straight away.
Unmasking MSK: The 6 Principles of Orthotic Therapy
Transform the way you approach MSK cases with this 10-hour CPD-accredited seven webinar course led by Louise Fisher. The 6 Principles of Orthotic Therapy guides you through a complete clinical framework, from patient assessment to prescription, helping you make more confident, effective decisions in practice.
From Heel to Toe: A Deep Dive into Symptoms & Prescriptions
Take a more targeted approach to orthotic prescription with From Heel to Toe: A Deep Dive into Symptoms and Prescriptions. This three-part series breaks down forefoot, midfoot and hindfoot presentations, helping you match orthotic variables to patient symptoms with greater clarity and confidence.
Transitioning from Traditional to Digital Foot Orthoses
Digital orthoses are changing the way clinicians capture, design and deliver devices, but knowing when and how to use them is key. This session explores where digital fits within clinical decision-making, and how to integrate it without losing the principles that underpin good practice.
Diabetic Foot Care
Diabetic foot care is essential in preventing lower-limb complications leading up to amputation. Our diabetic foot care education focuses on practical assessment, screening, prevention, and management, supporting clinicians to recognise concerns early and make more confident decisions in practice.
