What is paediatric orthotic treatment?

“Orthotic devices are useful in supporting a child’s functional development, aiding in the promotion of healthy long-term joint and postural growth, addressing muscular imbalances, and providing biomechanical support. Furthermore, they contribute to enhancing daily functional activities and mobility, forming a key component in the functional rehabilitation of many children. This, in turn, improves balance and posture, amplifying the effectiveness of other physical therapies.
