Congratulations for your desire to “Make Biomechanics Important, Fun and Profitable Again” in your professional practice by becoming certified in Restorative Biomechanics™.
Restorative Biomechanics™ is an evidence informed biomechanics paradigm that focuses on the joints of the foot and posture where motion and leverage stasis can be diagnosed and treated. FCB diagnoses, developss custom plans for, and treat the foot and postural suffering public professionally as never before.
The Foot Centering Theory of Structure and Function paradigm shift defines the architectural, engineering, and physics of functional lower extremity biomechanics as never before. Foot Centering qualitatively gives professionals power and control over underpinning pathology concerning stability, support, strength, symmetry, and balance of the human closed chain (standing and moving upright) foundation.
“Understanding the weighted foot in function is a mandated prerequisite for the prescription of both conservative and interventional treatment for foot and postural pathomechanics.” ~Dennis Shavelson DPM

Get Certified in Restorative Biomechanics™
The Foot Helpers Lab is the flagship location for professionals with an interest in Biomedical Engineering of the Lower Extremity looking to become a part of The Foot Centering Revolution that is “Making Biomechanics Great Again”® to attach to.
Excitement is in the air regarding a renewed ability to diagnose and treat the foot and lower extremity using The Foot Centering Theory of Structure & Function as their go to paradigm for biomechanics.
Teams are starting to assemble with and without walls with a common mission and goal set to go beyond controlling and curing chief complaints that include the nonsurgical care of juvenile and adult flatfoot, sports performance enhancement and injury prevention, prevention of plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis, reducing flat feet ankle sprains, fall prevention, quality of life, upgrading, reducing the need for 1st MP Joint, ankle, knee and hip replacement and spinal fusion for stenosis.
FootHelpers through the Foot Centering Institute remains available as the educational, product distribution, fabrication center, marketing, and integrative source in The United States and abroad for those looking to join a new biomechanical fraternity dedicated to ending the pain and suffering of mankind as they live their weight-bearing and functional lives.
As those who begin to study the literature, lectures, and marketing Centering Theory Biomechanics quickly find out, the experiential starting faa, platform of this science is a patented foot-typing method called materials that have surfaced over the past 10-12 years and practice Foot Functional Foot Typing® that examines and profiles all feet into groups that possess similar negative and positive characteristics that can be used to present corrective lower extremity biomechanics to the foot and postural suffering public in an understandable and constructive manner.
Get Certified in Foot Centering Kinesiology Taping and Foot Centering Wedges Application
Patented Foot Centering Wedges and Kinesiological Tape Applications are the first levels of treatment in Foot Centering Biomechanics. They are therapeutic but also act as a “test drive” for Dynamic Foot Braces if they improve Stability, Support, Strength, Symmetry, and Balance for the wearer over time.
Applied foot-type-specific, FC Wedges are placed on an existing foot orthotic, shoe insert, or insole or directly onto a pair of shoes or slippers so they can be underfoot as much as possible.
In addition, “Breaking-In” these felt and foam pads is much easier than breaking in a Dynamic Foot Brace making this aspect of the custom foot insert process less difficult.
Finally, these pads can be added to existing Dynamic Foot Braces to add more custom care or to test drive for the need for a new Dynamic Foot Brace or refurbishing of the existing pair.
The Study Material Includes PowerPoint Presentations, Published Articles, White Papers, Casting Didactics, Work Order Proficiency and a Thirty-Three (33) Question Exam (with four additional attempts included if not passed) that once passed will Certify you in diagnosing, casting, dispensing and monitoring Foot Centering Pads and Stabili-T-tape in practice.
Get Certified in Dynamic Foot Braces
Dynamic Foot Braces are patented foot inserts that are generated from Functional Foot Typing utilizing Foot Centering Biomechanics.
They are generated from a foot type-specific negative cast or scan and a work order (no Rx) that are sent to a Certified Foot Centering Biomechanics Fabrication Center where our proprietary software can manipulate the positive cast by lowering a ray or making the device more vaulted even beyond your cast.
This ensures that the end product will engineer the feet and posture of the wearer dependably towards improved Stability, Support, Strength, Symmetry, and Balance, guaranteed.
Dynamic Foot Braces are not covered by insurance and do not involve an Rx from a physician or consultant making you independent.
The Study Material Includes PowerPoint Presentations, Published Articles, White Papers, Casting Didactics, Work Order Proficiency and a Thirty-Three (33) Question Exam (with four additional attempts included if not passed) that once passed will Certify you in diagnosing, casting, dispensing and monitoring Dynamic Foot Braces in practice.
The Experiential Test Drive & The Foot Centering Training Program
Now that you are Certified in Restorative Biomechanics™, are sanctioned to Foot Type, SERM-PERM Test, diagnose and create and monitor a custom treatment plan, foot type specific for each clentt that you examine. A FCB diagnosis and treatment plan has no ICD-10 diagnostic codes and no CPT treatment Codes and therefore is unlisted and not approved for insurance reimbursement.CPT Code and no diagnostic codes. It is direct pay care. Congratulations.
It is now time for you to decide if you are inspired and excited to become certified in the current treatment tools that are available for Certification that are also not covered by insurance and so are direct pay products.
The Tools and Usefulness of Restorative Biomechanics™
- Foot Centering Wedges, Foot Centering Kinesiology Tape Strappings, and Dynamic Foot Braces are new treatment tools that can be placed in your biomechanical and therapeutic toolbox to expand your services, your marketability, your outcomes and your financial success.
- These tools serve to apply an extraordinary positive, almost magical force into your ability to diagnose, treat, present, coach, and train patients with renewed skill, confidence & control. No one denies that improving foundational stability, support, strength, symmetry, and balance at the level of the feet and lower leg is useful in any market involving human movement and performance. Adding new levels of prevention, performance enhancement, quality of life upgrades, and reduced risk for injury are at the top of both practitioner and patient bucket lists.
- These devices, when utilized functional foot type-specific, reduce and sometimes actually remove underpinning biomechanical forces that are the scientific, evidence-informed root cause of many complaints that can be new areas of focus as you become more integrative and wellness-oriented.
- These tools and their therapeutic value do not affect your current treatment that you (and others) employ for complaints, pain, and deformity that remain insurance billable. Foot Centering diagnoses and treats root caused, underpinning structural and mechanical biological and physical imperfections that are inherited or driven by overuse and concomitant unfavorable health and environmental restrictions.
These cost-effective certifications complete your ability to offer niche career offerings that are a win-win for you, your staff, and your patients.
