Custom Orthotics a Snap, Thanks to New Spenco Product
Waco, Texas (PRWEB) July 16, 2014 -- When patients present with foot pain, they usually want immediate relief. Thanks to Spenco, the most trusted name in insoles, doctors can now make a diagnosis and dispense high-quality, durable prescription orthotics in their offices in less than 10 minutes.
The company’s new Quickthotics® Component Insole System offers economical, easily customized orthotic insoles to address the mechanical etiologies of common lower-limb pathologies.
“Patients get immediate, cost-effective foot orthotic therapy delivered chair-side, and doctors get lower laboratory bills,” said Dr. Ray Anthony, a podiatrist and Spenco Medical Corporation medical consultant. “This product is a win-win for patients and doctors alike.”
The Quickthotics insoles incorporate Total Support® Technology, which means even without customization, they may be effective in the management of lower-limb conditions. For those with more specialized needs, the insoles also come with die-cut, self-adhesive varus heel and valgus forefoot wedges; interchangeable arch supports; heel lifts; and removable plugs to incorporate first metatarsal cut-outs and calcaneal dells (heel impressions).
A 30-page prescription guideline booklet includes a recommended five-minute biomechanical examination procedure. It also provides an evidence-based approach to using the product in the orthotic management of common foot and leg musculoskeletal pathologies.
There’s no need for glue or a grinding machine. With Quickthotics, a medical office only needs a pair of scissors to fabricate and dispense prescription insoles.
"A doctor has total control over the prescriptions, and adjustments take only seconds at follow-up appointments,” Anthony said. “Best of all, the Quickthotics product was designed by Spenco — a name you know you can trust for top-quality foot health care products.”
Designed to be modified by a medical professional, Quickthotics are only available in physicians’ offices.
