Wiivv Offers 3D Printed Orthotics at Vancouver Historic Half Marathon
Vancouver, British Columbia (PRWEB) December 05, 2014 -- This past Sunday, Wiivv Wearables Company, sponsored the Vancouver Historic Half Marathon. The Wiivv team was on site in Stanley Park, performing free assessments for custom 3D printed orthotics. The process involves taking a 3D foot scan and gathering lifestyle information. Wiivv created a buzz among the active participants, excited to find a new way to access orthotics. Many of the 800 participants took advantage by getting sized for the performance-enhancing product. The Wiivv team had Andrew Taylor (MSc PT) on hand, discussing the physical impact custom orthotics can have on the human body. Comfort, less fatigue, and increased athletic performance were highlighted as the primary benefits.
