NAPA Brisbane Consultants

We now have some additional paediatric services available at our Brisbane Clinic.

Orthotic Services – by AbilityMade

AbilityMade are lower limb orthotic specialists providing cutting-edge 3D printed AFOs customised to your child’s needs, interests, and lifestyle. They run regular onsite clinics at NAPA Sydney to help you reduce travel and wait times, and allow your Physio and Orthotist to work more closely together toward the best outcomes for your child.

 

The clinics offer both traditional polypropylene supports as well as the latest 3D printed options to provide high-precision, fully custom-designed supports for your child using the latest breakthroughs in materials. The new generation custom-made AFOs are made of composite materials, optimise fit, comfort and functionality, and come in a great selection of styles.

 

AbilityMade can help you with:

  • Assessment 
  • Diagnostic Testing 
  • Funding Submission 
  • Custom-Made Orthotics 

 

How might your child benefit? 

  • Seeing an experienced orthotist skilled in both traditional thermoplastic supports and 3D-printed orthotics unlocks a broader range of options for you or your child’s needs
  • Unlock design features that are not possible using traditional manufacture to better reach your child’s movement milestones and goals
  • Enjoy the convenience of on-site clinics at NAPA, where your therapist can attend your orthotic appointments, work hand-in-hand with your orthotist and stay aligned on lifestyle, therapy and orthotic goals.
  • Digital scans are quick and simple and can avoid a more laborious or traumatic casting process that can come with traditional manufacture
  • AbilityMade 3D printed AFOs are made from comfortable and supportive materials, often lower profile, and come in a variety of fun colours and patterns to suit personal styles
  • Designs are easily repeatable or adaptable as you or your child grows or engages in new activities
