'The Inverted Orthotic Technique' is a book meant for Podiatrists, Podiatric Medical Students, and health care providers interested in lower extremity biomechanics. The Inverted Orthotic Technique is a system of functional foot orthotic devices to be utilized in the correction of pronated feet, injuries requiring foot inversion to alleviate symptoms, and to help stabilize the mechanics of athletic endeavors like running and cycling. The book covers the selection process of the patients that would be appropriate to use the device, the manufacturing devices to be utilized, the follow up of patients and possible modifications to the devices for various reasons. The overall aim of the book is to discuss a wide array of biomechanical principles, while maintaining a practical approach to lower extremity biomechanics in a clinical setting. Further inclusions are: discussions about injuries or pain patterns related to excessive pronation or excessive supination, short leg syndrome, poor shock absorption, and weak or tight muscles; break downs on the components of a good gait evaluation and aspects of the biomechanical examination especially important to the Inverted Orthotic Technique, like heel bisection and identifying equinus forces.
