Welcome to the Future of Orthotics

These orthotics are all you need.  I mean really, in 10 years i've made thousands of orthotics and 80% had these attributes: 4 degrees of intrinsic hindfoot post, a neutral arch, and 2 degrees of forefoot post.  What changed? top cover materials, amounts, and shapes.
I've developed these orthotics to satisfy the people who are demanding of quality, but want a device that will WORK and LAST.

The Travail style came about because as a younger man, I used to have a job that required me to stand 12 hours a day on hard marble floors.  I used to stuff rolled up socks in my arches to combat the pain from plantar fasciitis!  My comfort was truly dictated by the amount of cushion in my shoe.  In 1999 I became a Physical Therapist.  I poured myself into the specialty of the foot and ankle and in 2001, became a Certified Pedorthist.  I've made countless custom foot orthotics and braces using every method imaginable.  Once I found a combination that worked, I vowed to replicate it in an orthotic that could be made without needing a cast of a foot.

Why no cast?  Simply put, I think it's unecessary for the majority of people with foot and ankle concerns.  In my opinion, and based on the literature, if a person has more than 8 degrees of forefoot varus or a  unique shaped foot, a cast is in order.  But most folks require a long lasting device with good arch support, high quality materials, and expert fabrication.

The comfort orthotics I create have been used by hundreds of persons all over the world.  They last around 10 years.  They help people heal.  They keep people from surgery.  They help you perform your sport.  They just plain feel good.

Thanks for helping me understand that foot orthotics would be necessary for people with issues with their feet and ankle. In that case, a friend of mine should consider getting this for herself. She is flatfooted as what she told me ever since we were teens.
