Most orthotics simply capture the foot in its collapsed position. MASS Posture is different. It positions the foot in its maximum attainable supination - as much as can be comfortably achieved - while keeping both the heel and forefoot plantar‑grade (flush to the floor). This creates a corrected, elevated arch posture that supports the entire kinetic chain.
The degree of supination isn’t arbitrary. It’s determined by your foot’s flexibility and ligamentous laxity, ensuring each impression reflects your unique structural capacity. No generic shapes. No assumptions. Pure biomechanics.
The floor provides a stable, repeatable reference plane. Unlike foam boxes or pressure mats that capture the foot after it collapses, MASS Posture preserves the corrected arch position we aim to support.
Maximal arch support designed to stabilize supination and improve overall posture.
Instead of stepping into foam and recording a distorted posture, the foot is guided through the same loading sequence it experiences during normal gait. This respects natural biomechanics and produces a more functional orthotic.
The foam provides upward resistance during casting, maintaining the corrected arch shape created by the stance‑phase sequence. The result: a full‑contact orthotic that supports the arch where it actually needs it.
Because the foot is guided to floor level, the final cast avoids forefoot varus or valgus errors—common flaws in less precise methods.
This method is faster, cleaner, more consistent, and more biomechanically accurate than plaster casting. It improves clinical efficiency and patient outcomes.
3D MASS Posture foot impressions deliver full-contact arch support - precisely where it matters.

MASS Posture Theory is grounded in engineering principles and published in the Foot and Ankle Foundation Online Journal. Dr. Glaser’s work re‑engineered orthotics to correct biomechanics in the foot, lower extremity, and ultimately the entire body.
