Abstract
An orthotic insert of unitary construction formed from a compressible, thermoset, closed-cell foam plastic, featuring an anterior varus wedge, a medial shelf corresponding to the first ray and a heel cup for stabilizing the calcaneus and underlying protective fat pad substantially in the neutral position, all contributing to minimizing excess foot pronation.
