Assistive Device Innovation Project

The project will support technology innovation for an assistive device to treat plantar fasciitis and achilles tendinopthy more quickly and easily. Affecting more than 15% of the general population, these indications have significant affect on health and wellbeing including occupational, physical and mental health. Recovery is lengthy, re-occurance is common and treatment is not standarized. Through development, there is an opportunity to advance assistive device innovation to improve treatment outcomes and ultimately improve the health and well being of Canadians.
