The RX24 QuadraStep System is based on a clinical algorithm identifying 24 congenital foot-types. This program examines pathological gait conditions resulting from the occurrence of rearfoot varus deformities, forefoot varus and forefoot valgus, as well as their combined effects. Participants will learn to perform visual static and dynamic gait analysis and  interpret key weight-bearing compensations in order to differentially interpret a patient’s foot-type. Lab sessions include actual fitting of orthotic devices. Course is appropriate for most allied health professionals.
