Orthotics Inserts

Custom made cast or ready made Orthotics/inserts can be constructed specifically to correct your foot and lower limb mechanics. Specially designed Orthotics can relieve arch and heel pain in the foot; alleviate pain in the ankle, knee, and hip also in the lower back. The use of orthotics will also help to readjust and realign the body.



First you will need an initial consultation with the podiatrist. When you arrive for your appointment, we will gather a medical history from you, recording any leg or foot pain/problems. The consultation will also include a physical examination of your spine and your lower extremities. The podiatrist will then provide a manual or computerized biomechanical analysis of your feet; this will include a short time on the tread mill, to record your gait. This will enable the podiatrist to observe the biomechanical changes in your gait, any changes, such as arches that have dropped, or are altered, can cause a change in how you walk, putting pressure on your ankles, knees and hips resulting in lower back pain.



If it is determined that an orthotic would be beneficial for you, the podiatrist will view the computerised recordings with you, and together you will discuss the possibilities of introducing an orthotic to your footwear. At our surgery we are able to provide custom made foot orthotic’s specific to your needs in house. The materials used are strong and durable; therefore, your orthotics can last for several years before they need to be replaced. People should consider wearing orthotics for various reasons, including: flat feet, fallen arches, heel spurs, plantar fasciitis, over rotation, leg length discrepancies and other biomechanical problems.
