Orthotist
Explanation:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthotics

Orthotists provide a range of splints, braces and special footwear to aid movement, correct deformity and relieve discomfort.

An Orthotist (pron: Ortho-tist) is an allied health professional and clinician who practices in public hospitals or the private sector.

The Orthotist's role is to assess, prescribe, apply and provide education regarding the use and care of an appropriate orthosis that serves the individual's requirements.

An orthosis is the true term for a brace or appliance that is designed and fitted to the body to achieve one or more of the following goals:

Control biomechanical alignment
Protect and support a healing injury
Assist rehabilitation
Reduce pain
Increase mobility
Increase independence
