    Does anybody have access to this article below?

    The purpose of my study is to find the best method for incorporating an accurate pitch or elevation to the rearfoot post of an orthotic.

    Any suggestions?

    Are you meaning medial rearfoot posting or are you meaning heel raise?

    Gareth,

    What I was meaning was a sagital plane grind for the crepe/eva rearfoot post.
