Medical Product Development

Several Years ago Stephen was invited to co-develop the next generation in customisable foot orthotic devices for the professional market. The result was the highly successful and innovative VectOrthotic foot orthotic system. http://www.vectorthotic.com/

It is now being enthusiastically used in both the NHS and private sectors as a cost effective way of treating patients.

It puts the practitioner back in control of the treatment instead of relying on orthotic laboratories many miles away who have never seen the patient.

It means that patients are now being treated more quickly without the long wait for the orthoses to return from the laboratories.

It also means that the practitioner can adjust the orthoses whist the patient is in the clinic for a more accurate prescription and therefore more effective treatment of the patients mechanical problems.

Recently Stephen has been involved in designing the X-Line range of insoles that are being used as a first line treatment prior to the VectOrthotic. They also make excellent temporary corrective orthoses.
