Orthotics
A human body is an intricate structure, upheld in an upright position through a delicate balance of weight distribution, tensions, and pressures. Feet bear the whole weight of the body and anchor it to the ground, and hence any foot deformities directly affect posture, mobility, and ranges of motion. Orthotics is the branch of medicine that cares for your feet, legs and posture. Orthotic specialists design and manufacture such devices as shoe inserts and insoles, arch supports, heel cups, nights splints and many more.
