Why is neoprene such a popular material for making orthotics?
Asked 3 years ago
Hi everyone. I'm hoping someone will take the time to answer my question. Neoprene seems to be a buzzword when it comes to orthotics. When I first heard of it, I thought it sounded like the kind of material superheroes would use to make their suits. However, a quick Google search showed me it's a kind of rubber. Is this right? Why is neoprene so popular when it comes to orthotics? I really appreciate any help you can provide.
