    The Ponseti Method is a conservative treatment for congenital talipes equinovarus, or clubfoot, developed by Dr. Ignacio Ponseti. It aims to correct all elements of the clubfoot deformity through manipulation to reduce the foot's plantar flexion and medial rotation, leaving a functional, pain-free, plantigrade foot through lateral rotation of the foot around a fixed talus. The goal is functional, pain-free feet that can wear normal shoes and avoid permanent disability.
