What are Orthotics?
Orthotics are tailor-made medical devices that are created to enhance and correct the mechanics of tissues and joints in the feet. These devices are uniquely shaped and sized to fit the foot of each individual and are inserted into the shoe like an insole. Orthotics are capable of remedying imbalances, strains, stresses, and pains in the feet, and they can also alleviate discomfort and pain in other parts of the body, such as the knees, hips, and back.
Orthotics can be used to treat a variety of conditions, such as plantar fasciitis, flat feet, high arches, and bunions. These conditions can often result in pain and discomfort in the feet, as well as the legs, hips, and back. By correcting the mechanics of the feet, orthotics can provide relief from pain and improve mobility.
A qualified healthcare professional, such as a podiatrist or physiotherapist, prescribes orthotics after conducting a thorough assessment of the patient’s feet and related symptoms. The healthcare professional takes into account the patient’s medical history, lifestyle, and objectives when determining the most suitable treatment plan. Orthotics can be made from various materials, such as foam, rubber, and plastic, and can be custom-designed to fit the patient’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
We use the latest technology to perform a highly precise scan of your movement. The Computerised Gait Scan collects information on the timing, pressure, and other unique characteristics of your gait, providing an in-depth analysis that is impossible to obtain through observation alone. Using this information, we can determine if orthotics can be beneficial to your treatment plan.
- Casting your Custom Orthotics
If we believe orthotics would be beneficial to you, we use the data from your gait analysis to create a dynamic cast of each foot – no need for plaster or foam casting. The dynamic cast is sent to a team of technicians who custom manufacture a pair of orthotics specifically for your feet. A range of orthotic styles are available from standard sizes, to thicker orthotics for support during sports or lighter options to fit into dress shoes.
- Using your Orthotics
Once you have your new orthotics our trained physios will guide you through the best use of them including an injury rehabilitation plan to help in your recovery. Treatments may also include hands on physiotherapy and at home exercises to complement your orthotics.
