An orthopedic casting slippers wholesale kit for custom molding of a foot impression
including a low-cut impression slipper shaped to extend upwardly on a patient's foot from a plantar surface of the foot to an open end. The impression slipper is made from a fabric that is sufficiently resilient so as to enable the impression slipper to substantially conform to the patient's foot. A support element is coupled to the impression slipper and extends around at least a portion of the patient's foot for holding the impression slipper snug against the patient's foot. A quantity of curable resin is provided for impregnation into the fabric of the impression slipper and is sufficient to harden the impression slippers wholesale into a cast foot impression.
A method of creating a custom molded foot impression comprising the steps of: mounting a low-cut resilient impression slipper having a curable resin impregnated therein over a patient's foot, the impression slipper having an arch strapattached to one of a medial side and a lateral side of the impression slippers wholesale; pulling the impression slipper up into contact with the patient's arch; while the impression slipper is in contact with the patient's arch, fastening the arch strap to theother of the medial side and the lateral side of the impression slipper to maintain the impression slipper in contact with the arch; manipulating the patient's foot to achieve a desired orientation; and hardening the resin in the impression slippers wholesale the patient's foot is in the desired orientation.
The method as defined in claim 9 wherein, the making step is accomplished by placing a casting material inside the hardened impression slippers wholesale and removing the hardened casting material from inside the hardened impression slipper by cuttingthe hardened impression slipper downwardly in the area of the heel and downwardly and anteriorly from the anterior or front margin of the opening of the slipper toward the area of the middle toe ending at the stitch line and bending the medial andlateral sides of the hardened slipper outwardly to release the hardened casting material.
