Footwear can be a contributor to foot pain. Poor fitting shoes in the short term can cause blisters, calluses, bruising and be a source of athlete's foot. The long-term effects may be bunions, corns, irritation of nerves and joints, misalignment of the toes, and the source of microtrauma injuries to the foot.
Adaptive Switches. Adaptive Switches are access devices that enable people with significant motor limitations to use technology or operate other electronic devices. The simple movements used to operate a switch replaces complex actions that limit independent access for some students (e.g., pressing a button instead of turning a knob).
Welcome to Adaptive Switch Laboratories. ASL designs products specifically for those who cannot access their environment through conventional means. Our products and designs are a direct result of the needs of those we serve. Our goal has always been independence and equal rights for those we work with.
