ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for forming a foot orthotic is provided including a housing for an inflatable bladder. The bladder is inflated with a hand held compressible bulb. A heat softened orthotic blank is positioned between a patient's foot and the bladder which is inflated to conform the blank to the bottom surface of the foot. The shaped blank is allowed to cool to render it nondeformable at room temperature.
