Research Drives Mass Adoption of Interpod Orthoses

Global leaders in preform orthotic technology: Interpod are once again proving that their orthoses are leagues ahead when it comes to cutting edge design and functionality. The hugely popular Interpod range is fast becoming the most researched off-the-shelf foot orthotic in the World.

(PRWEB) May 23, 2007 -- An impressive library of evidence has grown to over 13 research studies and journal articles, proving that Interpod orthoses are potentially the most researched products on the market. Interpod are one of the world's most respected orthotic producers, this is largely due to the fact that the product design is based on years of study and research and is proven to 'actually work' and out-perform other leading brands of preform foot orthoses.

Much of the work and research has been carried out by Australia's famous La Trobe University and leading biomechanics specialist, Craig Payne. Other researchers include: Christopher Carcia from Duquesne University, as well as Blackhouse & Bowen from the University of Southampton. Research in progress is also being carried out by Jo Paton form the University of Plymouth.

The majority of this research is now available for download on the www.Algeos.com website.

On the website you can also watch the DVD online. A spokesperson for A. Algeo Ltd states that the range is one of their top selling brands and feedback from customers has been extremely positive, describing the products as being highly effective in treating a range of biomechanical problems. They also found that more than 9 out of 10 clinicians that have tried and tested the range have continued to do so, resulting in many satisfied patients.

In order to demonstrate how Interpod products work, their latest venture involved producing a DVD with Craig Payne which aims to educate people on biomechanical assessment techniques and orthotic prescription. The DVD also explains how to use and fit the Interpod Preform orthoses in light of the research that has taken place.

With a wealth of supporting research, it is clear that Interpod are leading pioneers in the field of prefabricated foot orthoses. Exciting new studies are currently under way that will continue to prove that preform orthoses have an increasing part to play in the future in orthotic medicine.
