Learn how to create professional custom-made orthoses that can make a real difference to your client’s comfort.
Painful pressure points, hammer toes, claw toes, overlapping toes… Foot problems can have a significant impact on your clients’ everyday comfort.
During this practical training course, you will learn how to correctly create custom-made orthoses using medical-grade silicone, tailored to the individual foot and the client’s specific needs.
Because a good orthosis is never a one-size-fits-all solution: every foot requires an individual approach.

What will you learn?
Why work with orthoses?
A correctly made orthosis allows you to respond to the individual needs of your client in a highly targeted way.

When can an orthosis be used? Orthoses can be used for various conditions, including:
From assessment to a custom-made orthosis
A good orthosis always starts with a correct assessment.
That’s why you won’t simply learn how to make an orthosis. You will also learn how to determine the right shape, function and silicone hardness for your client’s individual needs.
Step by step, you will learn how to mould the silicone directly onto the foot, adapt the orthosis to the anatomy and check that it is both comfortable and functional.
We also cover aftercare and follow-up, so you know how to identify unwanted pressure points and adjust the orthosis when necessary.
A valuable and practical specialisation for foot care professionals who want to offer their clients a more personalised approach and improve their everyday comfort.
Learn by doing
This advanced training course has a strong hands-on focus. We deliberately work in small groups of no more than 4 participants, allowing plenty of time for personal guidance, questions and practising the techniques in detail.
During part of the training, participants will practise on each other. In addition, each participant is required to bring 1 model, giving you the opportunity to apply the techniques in a realistic practical setting.
Starter kit
A specific starter kit containing the necessary professional products and/or materials is available for this training course.
The starter kit is not included in the course registration fee and must be purchased separately.
This ensures that you have the correct materials during the training and can continue practising and applying the technique in your own practice afterwards.
Invest in your expertise
Want to further distinguish yourself as a specialised foot care professional? Continuing to develop your skills and expertise can help you offer even more value to your clients.
This hands-on advanced training allows you to expand your professional knowledge and skills, provide more targeted solutions for your clients and strengthen your position as a specialised foot care professional.
And because we keep our groups small, you receive the personal attention and guidance you need to truly master the technique.
Previous knowledge and experience in foot care are required to participate in this advanced training course.
