You keep bodies moving, so why use static data?
Modernize your practice with superior movement data.
Chiropractic physicians are experts in the science of movement, understanding the intricate relationships within the kinetic chain. As specialists dedicated to keeping people moving, incorporating orthotic therapy is essential for establishing a solid foundation for healthy movement. However, many chiropractors still rely on static data to build orthotics, which can be limiting.
If the goal is to maintain and improve movement, it’s time to move beyond static data and integrate dynamic movement analysis and modern 3D-printed orthotic solutions. Both clinics and patients can realize the benefits.
- Measurement and Gait Analysis in 4D: By combining pressure, gait analysis, and timing with 3D foot scan data, chiropractors capture highly precise, objective measurements. This technology provides a comprehensive view of the foot’s structure and function, allowing for the most accurate orthotic design.
- Dynamic Data Capture: Using a pressure plate, chiropractors capture movement in four dimensions for every step the patient takes. This dynamic information reveals how the foot interacts with the ground during various activities, highlighting areas of concern that static data would otherwise miss.
- Identifying Dysfunction: Knowing where dysfunction occurs is vital for effective treatment. Capturing dynamic data during activities like walking, running, or even swinging a golf club, helps identify issues that need correction.
- Recommended Orthotic Designs: Advanced AI-driven software provides design recommendations based on true anatomical digital casting and precision diagnostics. This ensures that the orthotics are tailored to the patient’s unique needs, enhancing fit and effectiveness.
- 3D-Printed Custom Orthotics: Orthotics created using digital casting methods from 2D and 3D scanning are clean, quick, and highly accurate. 3D-printed custom orthotics offer superior fit and function compared to those made from static data alone.
By incorporating movement data and modern 3D printing technology, chiropractic physicians can enhance their practice, providing patients with more effective and personalized orthotic solutions. This approach not only improves patient outcomes but also aligns with the chiropractic mission of promoting optimal movement and function.
