About Our Founder Merton Root

Born: August 13, 1922
Died: September 25, 2002
Residence: San Jose, California
Education: California College of Chiropody
Known as: Father of Podiatry Biomechanics

Dr. Merton Root was a professional individual who was comfortable in social and group situations. He was highly intelligent and an avid reader, making him versed in many subjects. He expressed interest in history, science, and nature. Dr. Root was also a fan of classical, jazz, and Latin guitar music. Furthermore, he was a great listener; he had the innate ability to keep a conversation going. It was this characteristic that drew so many colleagues and patients to enjoy their interactions with him.

Dr. Root had a great sense of humor and was constantly surrounding himself with people who made him laugh. This included Drs. Robert (Bob) Hughes and William (Bill) Orien, two of his colleagues who would later become co-authors of his books. It was one of these books, Normal and Abnormal Function of the Foot — Clinical Biomechanics Volume II...


Biomechanical IntelligenceTM

In 2019 we released Biomechanical IntelligenceTM, a new method for collecting patients’ mechanical data, methodically examining the MSK patient and getting extraordinary outcomes.This helps you understand the unique and complex MSK system with each patient, helping you fine tune your orthotic design and providing each patient with treatments that work. Thousands of steps a day on modern flat surfaces create overuse pain and MSK pathology.

It’s called an environmental mismatch.

Man invented the wheel and hard surfaces for the wheel. Modern surfaces are mismatched for our feet and legs designed to walk on uneven ground.
Orthoses customized with Biomechanical IntelligenceTM keep MSK tissue in neutral mobility optimizing and adapting MSK tissue

From iPhone to Foot Orthotic

The easiest way to scan and order premium custom foot orthoses direct from KevinRoot Medical.

Foot ID is the first iOS app to scan the patient using apples TrueDepth camera system. This eliminates the need to scan with a larger more cumbersome system or cast your patient in the more antiquated traditional method of plaster or foam impression.

Foot ID allows you to scan and submit orders to our lab in seconds maximizing your efficiency.
