Rearfoot Control - why?
By controlling the rearfoot (calcaneal correction), not only the foot is supported from the moment it contacts the ground, but also during the initial stage of gait. Often by realigning the rearfoot, the mid and forefoot require less compensatory motion. (for an STJ axis deviation, the prescriber will choose the amount of rear foot correction, either intrinsically or extrinsically.
1st Ray Cutout
A first ray cut-out allows the first ray to plantarflex more effectively.
When the first ray is allowed to plantarflex the windlass mechanism functions normally and compression is reduced in the first MPJ and tension is reduced in the plantar fascia.
Most commonly used with functional hallux limitus and supinators. A 1st metatarsal cut-out drops the first metatarsal down (into plantarflexion) and forces the forefoot into pronation,achieving a better toe-off and conversely a better heel strike.
