Abstract: An orthotic apparatus includes a garment, first and second switches, a power source, an indicator and a series of electrical conductors. When a patient wearing the garment assumes an undesirable position, the switches are activated and the indicator produces an audible, visual or other prompt to remind the patient to change position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an orthotic for correction of foot pronation and a method to fabricate the foot orthotic. The orthotic includes a thin formable body having pliable medial and lateral side walls and a pliable bottom, and a securing mechanism to draw the side walls about a foot so as to create a hydrostatic pressure of the soft tissue of the foot within the orthotic. The securing mechanism includes hook and loop straps attached to the pliable body and looping rings attached to the pliable body for wrapping the straps therethrough. The pliable body is vacuumed formed plastic wherein the plastic is chosen form the group consisting essentially of polypropylene, polyethylene or copolymer. The orthotic has a heel post attached to the bottom thereof to provide stability for standing or walking. The heel post is formed from a semi circular piece of material chosen from the group consisting essentially of polypropylene, polyethylene, or copolymer.
