About Us
What we Provide
At Woods Orthotics, your care is led by fully qualified, HCPC‑registered orthotists: a small, highly skilled profession dedicated to improving mobility, comfort, and quality of life through expertly designed orthotic solutions. Orthotists are the primary clinicians responsible for the assessment, prescription, and provision of orthoses: medical devices that support, align, or improve the function of the body.
Our work blends clinical expertise with advanced technology, ensuring every patient receives a solution tailored to their unique needs. Whether you’re managing pain, recovering from injury, or seeking long‑term support for a complex condition, we provide thoughtful, evidence‑based care from your very first appointment.
What We Provide
• Foot Orthoses (Insoles): Custom‑made or bespoke devices to improve foot function, reduce pain, and enhance everyday comfort.
• Ankle–Foot Orthoses (AFOs): Support for walking, stability, and neurological conditions.
-
Knee Braces & KAFOs: From ligament support to offloading braces for osteoarthritis, through to full‑length KAFOs for more complex needs.
• Spinal Supports: Solutions for posture, pain management, and structural support.
• Custom Footwear: Individually designed shoes for those requiring specialist fit, function, or accommodation of deformity.
• And Much More: Including upper‑limb supports, paediatric orthotics, sports bracing, lycra garments and tailored rehabilitation solutions.
Every device we provide is backed by detailed assessment, precise measurement and a commitment to long‑term outcomes. Our clinic combines modern digital tools, such as 3D scanning and pressure analysis, with the clinical judgement that only experienced orthotists can offer.
You’re in the hands of professionals who understand the whole picture: your goals, your lifestyle and the science behind what will help you move better.
Our Story
Our journey in orthotics began in 2012, working across several companies and within the NHS. Those years shaped not only our clinical expertise but also our belief in what truly defines good orthotic care: time, clarity, and a genuine partnership with every patient. After a decade of experience, we opened our own private clinic in Oswestry in 2022 with a clear purpose—to provide the standard of care we had always wanted to deliver.
From the start, we built our clinic around thoughtful, unrushed appointments where listening comes first. We take the time to understand each person’s goals, explain every option clearly, and work with our patients to find solutions that genuinely improve comfort, mobility, and confidence. Our approach blends up‑to‑date technology—such as digital scanning and pressure analysis—with the clinical judgement that only experienced orthotists can offer.
Communication is central to how we work. We maintain strong links with referrers, Orthopaedic Consultants, physiotherapists, and all professionals involved in a patient’s care, ensuring everyone is informed and aligned. Creating an accessible, welcoming environment was equally important to us. Our Oswestry clinic includes a wheelchair‑accessible toilet and dedicated parking bays directly outside the door, making visits as easy and comfortable as possible.
As our service has grown, so has our reach. We now also run a clinic from Bridge House Clinic in Rossett, near Chester, allowing us to support even more people with the same high standard of personalised orthotic care.
