What are Orthotics?
Custom-made orthotics are designed to improve and correct the mechanics of tissues and joints in the feet. They are individually crafted to fit the specific shape and size of the patient’s foot and are placed inside the shoe like an insole. Orthotics are effective in correcting imbalances, strains, stresses and pains in the feet, as well as providing relief from discomfort in other parts of the body, such as the knees, hips and back.
Orthotics can treat a variety of conditions, including plantar fasciitis, flat feet, high arches, and bunions. These conditions can often cause pain and discomfort in the feet, legs, hips, and back. By correcting the mechanics of the feet, orthotics can alleviate pain and discomfort, as well as improve mobility.
A podiatrist or physiotherapist, a qualified healthcare professional, prescribes orthotics after a thorough examination of the patient’s feet and related symptoms. The healthcare professional considers the patient’s medical history, lifestyle, and objectives when deciding on the best course of treatment. Orthotics can be crafted from different materials, such as foam, rubber, and plastic, and can be custom-tailored to fit the individual’s foot and specific condition.
What can Orthotics help with?
Our Process
- Examination and Gait Assessment
Your physiotherapist will conduct a thorough examination of your feet, ankles, and gait to determine the current action and movement of your feet and lower limbs. We will also collect information about your history, symptoms, circumstances, and any previous treatments you have undergone to determine the best approach for your particular needs.
- Computerised Gait Analysis
To conduct a highly precise scan of your movement, we use the most advanced technology available. The Computerised Gait Scan gathers information on the timing, pressure, and other unique characteristics of your gait, providing a detailed analysis that cannot be obtained through observation alone. Based on this information, we can determine whether orthotics can be helpful in your treatment plan.
- Casting your Custom Orthotics
If we believe that orthotics could be useful for you, we leverage the data from your gait analysis to create a dynamic cast of each foot – eliminating the need for plaster or foam casting. The dynamic cast is then forwarded to a team of technicians who produce a pair of orthotics specifically for your feet. We provide an assortment of orthotic styles, from standard sizes to thicker orthotics for support during sports or lighter options that can fit into dress shoes.
- Using your Orthotics
After receiving your new orthotics, our trained physios will instruct you on their optimal usage, including an injury rehabilitation plan to aid in your recovery. Treatments may also consist of hands-on physiotherapy and at-home exercises to complement your orthotics.
