Orthotics

Pediatric Orthotics: Protection, Stability & Performance

We specialize in custom pediatric orthoses designed to support children’s mobility, development, and overall well-being. Our expert team provides gentle, precise fittings to ensure maximum comfort and function, helping kids move with confidence.

We offer a wide variety of braces:

AFOs (ankle foot orthoses): specialized pediatric designs to support proper foot alignment and gait development in children with various neuromuscular conditions, available in colorful patterns that kids love.
SMOs (Supramalleolar Orthoses): SMOs are custom ankle-foot orthoses designed to support ankle stability and correct foot alignment in children with mild to moderate pronation or hypotonia.
UCBs (University of California Biomechanics Orthotics): UCB orthotics provide tailored arch support for developing feet, helping correct pediatric flatfoot and prevent future alignment issues during critical growth periods.
HOs (Hip Orthoses): Hip orthoses specially designed for growing bodies, providing gentle correction for developmental hip conditions while allowing appropriate mobility for active children.
Pavlik Harness: The Pavlik harness is a soft, adjustable brace used to treat developmental hip dysplasia in infants by holding the hips in proper position for growth.
Rhino Cruisers: Rhino Cruiser braces help maintain hip positioning in toddlers with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), often used after Pavlik harness treatment.
Newport Hip Abduction Orthoses: Child-friendly Newport hip orthoses that promote proper hip development while accommodating growth spurts, available in lightweight materials for comfort during daily activities.
Pectus Brace: A pectus brace is a custom-fitted orthotic device designed to help correct pectus carinatum (protruding chest) by gradually applying gentle pressure to the sternum. This non-surgical treatment is most effective in growing children and adolescents and is tailored to ensure comfort, optimal fit, and successful chest wall reshaping over time.

Our compassionate approach ensures every child receives a tailored solution that promotes stability, independence, and unrestricted exploration at every stage of life.
