1. A system for making custom orthotic devices, the system comprising:
a housing, wherein the housing includes an opening sized to receive a body part;
a plastic sheet mounted to the housing such that the plastic sheet is in a position to receive pressure from the body part;
a ferrous material positioned within the housing; and
an electromagnetic source that generates electromagnetic radiation to heat the ferrous material such that, in conjunction with the received pressure, the plastic sheet molds into an orthotic device for the body part.
