Who invented Orthotics?

Does anyone know who invented orthotic insoles? I tried researching it on google, but I can't seem to find any info. The history of orthotics?








Thanks.

Who invented Orthotics?
It was probably Dr. Scholl. Yeah, he was a real guy. Dr. William Mathias Scholl, a podiatrist, was born in 1882. Scholl and company invented a number of foot care products, including foot pads, arch supports, and insoles which he marketed in 1906. Dr Scholl died in 1968, leaving the company in family hands. The Dr. William M. Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine is located at Rosalind Franklin University in North Chicago, Illinois.
