Phits 3D Printed Orthotics
A digital orthotics workflow for foot and ankle experts.
Your patients wear orthotics while they move, so why not design them based on how they move? With cutting-edge pressure plates and analysis software built on years of scientific research, use dynamic data of your patient’s unique movement to determine what’s happening beneath the foot and generate bespoke orthotic recommendations.
A more accurate, efficient, and fully customised workflow that will have you working smarter, not harder; and all in three simple steps…
1. Measurement
Obtain quick, accurate, real-time dynamic data from your patient’s unique movement using Footscan.
2. Analysis
Observe how your patient’s feet function during their natural gait and identify any asymmetries or abnormalities in their foot pressure, timings and stability during the dynamic roll-off.
3. Design
Adapt and customise your scientifically automated Phits 3D-printed orthotic design and order instantly via the cloud.
Why choose Phits
Intuitive and user-friendly
An easy-to-use design wizard and crystal-clear visualisations make analysis, design and ordering Phits orthotics effortless. Keep track of every change, alter any recommendation as you see fit using simple sliders, and move through the entire digital process in as few as three clicks.
Enhanced patient experience
Easily explain your treatment plan and monitor progress over time using clear 2D and 3D visualisations. Not only does this help patients to understand their situation, it will help to bring them on board in the process whilst validating your clinical reasoning.
Data-driven prescriptive design
Prescribing bespoke orthotics has never been more simple with precise, scientifically calculated parameters to help ensure the perfect fit; such as local stiffness, navicular support, top cover density/thickness, rearfoot posting and more.
Optimal accuracy
Phits are accurate to the nearest 0.1mm with no room for error in the manufacturing process, providing tailored support and cushioning where you need it most. This ensures exact replicas can be produced if the patient requires more than 1 pair.
Backed by research
Through research and collaboration with leading Universities, we continuously improve our algorithms. Our commitment to innovation, led by science, sets our state-of-the-art software and measurement systems apart.
Highly scalable
Thanks to its precise and automated digital workflow, you can speed up the process of analysis, diagnosis, orthotic design and manufacturing, allowing you to treat more patients and not waste time manufacturing and finishing devices in house.
True customisation
Develop truly custom Phits orthotics for each patient based on their unique gait, lifestyle needs and footwear. Manually adjust everything from the location of the metatarsal pad to the height of the navicular support.
Powered by Footscan technology
Guided by 25+ years of experience in plantar pressure measurement technology, we are the industry frontrunners in this field. Our dynamic gait analysis systems are suitable for both clinical and scientific use.
Minimal bulk and lightweight
Phits are less than half the weight of traditional orthotics whilst offering extreme durability and comfort, whether you are walking, running or playing sport.
Footwear specific
Regardless of your age or activity level, Phits offers specific designs to cater for your footwear; such as walking, running, football, golf, cycling, skiing and workwear.
Phits for all
Whether you are an elite athlete, recreational walker or factory worker on your feet, Phits will help your feet to adopt the correct foot motion, improve your movement efficiency and minimise your risk of injury.
Sustainable
As Paula states, “My Phits simply don’t wear out.” Not only are the devices robust, they are 3D-printed via selective laser sintering (SLS) using Bluesint PA12 which is created from 100% recycled powder; removing the waste associated with traditional orthotic manufacturing. We also plant a tree for every pair of Phits ordered as part of the GMTree Project.
Clinical training and education
Looking to improve your confidence in lower limb biomechanics and orthotic prescription writing? All Phits suppliers gain exclusive access to our GMT Education programme, with webinars hosted by leading experts in the profession.
The choice of champions
Phits are the #1 orthotic choice of multiple British and World Champion athletes; from World Record breaking legends such as Paula Radcliffe, to current champions such as Charlotte Purdue to keep them moving pain free.
All Phits suppliers join the Gait and Motion Clinics national patient referral network and benefit from our nationwide marketing activities and strategies to the general public.
Don't just take our word...
“Dynamic gait analysis is the absolute best basis for prescribing foot orthotics to achieve the desired result. The results I see in my clinic on a day to day basis are phenomenal. Phits are quite simply the best orthotics I have prescribed in 13 years of clinical practice.”
Jo Lucas
Director & Orthotist, The Lakes Orthotics
“Having been running a Podiatry business for 8 years I have never come across a company like Gait and Motion Technology for customer service and professionalism. We have been using Footscan and Phits since December 2020 and it has been the best decision we have made to implement these products in our practice, not only for us as practitioners but for our patients too! The team have been fantastic supporting us along the way and we are proud to be part of Gait and Motion Clinics. If you are considering implementing the latest gait analysis technology in your practice, look no further than Gait and Motion!”

“Footscan provides unparalleled detail when we assess a patient's biomechanics and analyse their gait. Such detail results in a perfect 3D-printed insole, designed on force and pressure parameters. In our opinion no other orthotic can be as closely matched to foot function requirements!”
Ricky Cheema
Director & Podiatrist, RS Podiatry Clinic
“After 20 years in the industry, Phits has revolutionised the way we work. This is absolutely a world beating device, unrivalled in any way by any other company! I’ve been working with Gait and Motion since they started. The guys have been supportive, friendly and highly professional even though they have the best product on the market. They are not concerned with your monthly order status, they are concerned about you, your goals and how best they might support that. This is so rare to find and for that reason I am a client for life."
Paul Hobrough
Director & Physiotherapist, Hobrough Healthcare
“Starting a new practice and trying to choose the right kind of treatments for our patients is always challenging. But after having our first meeting with the team, we knew that Gait and Motion Technology was the company we wanted to work alongside. The product is great, the service has been exceptional and the response from our patients about their Phits orthotics has been excellent.”
