Restore Natural Movement on Modern Ground

Clinical-grade orthotics engineered from 60+ years of Root biomechanics - built to reduce pain, improve gait, and elevate performance.

Environmental Mismatch
Feet were designed for natural ground. Modern surfaces force unnatural loading. We correct that imbalance.

Congruent Arch Support
Our orthoses match the patient’s natural structure - not a generic arch. More alignment, less compensation.

Ground-Interaction First
We don’t “prop up” the foot. We change how it meets the ground.
Better GRF → better gait.
