Abstract:
Systems and methods for affecting a position of a foot are provided. In some aspects, a foot orthotic system comprises a compartment system configured to engage a shoe and engage at least a portion of a foot when the foot resides in or on the shoe. The compartment system may be adjustable from a first shape to a second shape. The foot orthotic system may also comprise one or more elongate members. In some aspects, as the compartment system is adjusted from the first shape to the second shape, an elongate member may change from a first state to a second state that is more taut than is the first state. In some aspects, when the compartment system engages at least a portion of the foot and is adjusted from the first shape to the second shape, a position of the foot relative to the shoe is adjusted.
