At Body ‘n’ Sole, our certified staff
bring a broad base of knowledge and experience in treating various orthopaedic
and pedorthic injuries and problems.
Orthopaedics deals with the body’s “musculoskeletal
system”. This includes the bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments,
nerves and any structure related to them.
Pedorthics is the design, manufacture, modification
and fit of footwear, including foot orthoses to alleviate foot problems
caused by disease, overuse, congenital defect or injury.
Relying on the doctor’s diagnosis, the technician’s ability
to provide, fit and maintain the prescribed device, along with the patient’s
willingness to use it properly, can make a profound difference in the
quality of an individual’s daily life. However, it is important
to note we cannot diagnose a condition. Diagnosis is
the responsibility of the referring physician. prescriptions are written
by a medical doctor who has assessed and diagnosed and decided on a treatment
plan, thus referring the patient to a facility such as Body ‘n’
Sole.
