How England may empower Foot care
Foot Specialist and Clients
The pedorthic and orthopedic industry serves a small specialized niche market. There is growing concern about the insufficient number of potential foot specialists being trained at colleges to meet future needs. Many foot specialists typically work in a physically demanding posture, often kneeling or bending over, which can lead to a shorter professional lifespan.
Orthostand offers a solution to this problem by providing an ergonomic and professional working posture. This innovative device extends the professional lifespan of foot specialists. Moreover, it improves outcomes for the patient as pedorthists can work in a comfortable posture.
