Each orthosis is carefully crafted in our UK-based facility, ensuring reliable turnaround times and consistently high standards.

Our expert technicians work closely with clinicians to produce high-quality, child-specific orthoses with speed and precision.

Mon-Fri: 9 AM – 5 PM
From Consultation to Delivery
Follow the simple step-by-step journey—from booking your appointment to receiving your custom-made orthoses from Halo Medical.
After your initial video consultation, you’ll attend a face-to-face assessment where our expert orthotists carry out detailed evaluations using advanced scanning and measurement techniques to recommend and provide the most suitable orthotic solution for your needs.
Once your assessment is complete, your scans and measurements are sent to our UK manufacturing centres, where your orthosis is carefully planned, designed, and crafted. After quality checks, it’s delivered to your clinic—usually within two weeks—ready for your fitting and any final adjustments.
Our clients say
My daughter has been a client of John Florence for over 10yrs. I find their service far superior than any other establishment I deal with; they go above and beyond. When my daughter’s electric swivel seat was stuck and we were due at an appointment, upon calling to explain, they brought her shoes to me!

Parent of patient
This is an incredible company, they have been a true lifeline to me and found solutions for my mobility difficulties each time I have seen them & kept me on my feet which has given me my independence by doing so, they’re a truly gifted team and always go that extra mile for their patients!

Gail Davis
Always amazing service. Robyn is fantastic, couldn’t ask for more. Personal service that never feels rushed, and can be contacted easily for ad-hoc queries. Wish all NHS healthcare services were like this. Thank you to the whole team.
