“Fragile Patient” (arthritic, elderly, acute pain) – begin with 1/16in lift and lift no more than 1/16in every 2 weeks

If spine is flexible & no more than mild-to-moderate strain is noted in the myofascial system, begin with 1/8in lift and lift at rate no faster than 1/16 in per week, or 1/8in every 2 weeks

If recent & sudden loss of leg length on one side (ie. Fx, surgery, lift full amount that was lost)

Max lift in shoe is 1/4in. If more lift is needed, must add it to the outside of the shoe
