Anti-pronator components are essential to effectively alter lower-limb kinematics and kinetics in individuals with flexible flatfeet
(Elsevier, 2021-05-23)Background Foot orthoses are commonly used to correct for foot alterations and especially address excessive foot pronation in individuals with flatfeet. In recent years, 3D printing has taken a key place in orthotic manufacturing processes as it offers ... -
Effect of 3D printed foot orthoses stiffness and design on foot kinematics and plantar pressures in healthy people
(Elsevier, 2020-08-14)Background Foot orthoses (FOs) have been widely prescribed to alter various lower limb disorders. FOs’ geometrical design and material properties have been shown to influence their impact on foot biomechanics. New technologies such as 3D printing ... -
Effect of 3D printed foot orthoses stiffness on muscle activity and plantar pressures in individuals with flexible flatfeet : a statistical non-parametric mapping study
(Elsevier, 2021-12-29)Background The 3D printing technology allows to produce custom shapes and add functionalities to foot orthoses which offers better options for the treatment of flatfeet. This study aimed to assess the effect of 3D printed foot orthoses stiffness and/or ...
