We enjoy researching, innovating and, above all, delivering solutions that turn the conventional wisdom on its head and help podiatry to evolve. We take strides forward every day. One step at a time, toward perfection.
For over a century, correcting foot dysfunctions and postural discomfort came down to immobilizing the foot. While this approach may have helped achieve some degree of comfort, over time, it proved to have drawbacks. Plaster casts are time-consuming and handling-intensive, messy and extremely wasteful; inaccurate orthotics require multiple adjustments; and orthotic dimensions limit the type and style of footwear patients can use, sometimes leading to non-compliance and ultimately ending patients’ relationship with their treating podiatrist.
Over the past 30 years, Cryos’ visionary approach has propelled innovative technologies that are now proven and recognized in Canada and around the world. We strive to make them available to podiatrists who are just as committed to rethinking podiatry.
Meet the clinicians behind Cryos’ approach to foot biomechanics and orthotic innovation. With decades of experience, Philippe Legaré and Frédéric Gremillet are helping to advance movement-focused podiatry through their clinical expertise, research, and collaborations.
The people and professionals who make up Cryos are passionate about innovation, collaboration, open-mindedness and commitment.
Every day, they put their hearts, knowledge and genius to work in advancing modern podiatry with innovative, high-performance solutions.
Every day, they are inspired by podiatrists and postural health professionals who are interested in technological advances to help their patients achieve better postural health.
Day in, day out, they reinvent themselves to give everyone with postural challenges better foot wellness and the power to get back to an active life.
