Powering Up

The Second Semester has begun, everyone had successful exams and we are all beginning new term projects. We will be reseaching a disease or disorder, casting a patient in the community with the condition, and fitting them with an appropriate orthoses.


Our Focus right now is on Ankle Foot Orthoses, we've had 1 patient volunteer and (hopefully) more are on their way. We have been filming pathological gait of our patients in the Gait Lab, as well as analyzing the biomechanical differences of walking in good shoes vs. High heels (Even one of the guys was a good sport and wore a pretty pair of 4" Slingbacks). Videos will be up on the Goal Site Shortly!
