Rearfoot Valgus Post Grind: DOLA Pro prefabricated orthotic

Full video link: https://youtu.be/jrdhOMq0Qm4

A common prefabricated orthotic adjustment is the addition of a valgus (lateral) rearfoot post.

The DOLA Pro full length allows up to a 6 degree valgus post to be ground into the orthotic shell without the need for extra EVA or reinforcement.

This can also be extended to the forefoot with the ability to grind in a forefoot valgus extension directly into the shell.

The shell comes pre-reinforced with a flat plantar surface and clinical markings to make grinding in the valgus rearfoot post easier.

Put the glue away use this prefab for faster and easier modification, which equals a faster dispense to your patient.

Common Indications include:
-Increase lateral orthotic reaction force
-Apply pronatory moment
-Tissue stress pathologies related to foot posture and biomechanics
- Peroneal pathologies, lateral ankle instability

Alternative modification options:

-Self adhesive EVA wedge
-Lateral heel skive addition
-Eversion ramp

DOLA Pro Customisation In-focus

This client needed a prefabricated orthotic modified to fit football boots.

Football boots often have a reduced footbed size for support of an EVA shank dependent orthotic material compared to sports shoes.

They selected the DOLA Pro prefab and prescribed a series of fit customisations to match the football boot dimensions.

Prescription:
Full length DOLA Pro prefabricated Soft EVA orthotic shell
Rearfoot post taper
Heel Cup height reduction
EVA blue swirl

Orthotip:

The DOLA Pro full length EVA shell allows for easy in-clinic fit customisations to your patients footwear.

In this case a heel cup height reduction and a rearfoot post taper were applied to the standard shape out of the packet.

They used the DOLA Pro lab customisation service to prescribe the orthotic required selecting the fit customisations required.

It was manufactured and delivered directly to the clinic.

Popular fit custoimisations for hard to fit footwear include:
-Heel cup height reduction
-Medial taper
-Lateral taper
-Rearfoot post taper
