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.
The use of orthotics can effectively treat several conditions, such as plantar fasciitis, flat feet, high arches, and bunions. These conditions can lead to discomfort and pain in the feet, legs, hips, and back. Orthotics work by correcting the foot’s mechanics and can alleviate pain, as well as improve mobility.
Orthotics are prescribed by a qualified healthcare professional, such as a podiatrist or physiotherapist, after a thorough assessment of the patient’s feet and related symptoms. The healthcare professional will take into account the individual’s medical history, lifestyle, and goals when determining the best course of treatment. Orthotics can be made from a variety of materials, including foam, rubber, and plastic, and can be custom-made to fit the individual’s foot and specific condition.
What can Orthotics help with?
Our Process
- Examination and Gait Assessment
A comprehensive analysis of your feet, ankles, and gait will be performed by your physiotherapist to determine the current action and movement of your feet and lower limbs. Furthermore, we will gather information on your history, symptoms, circumstances, and any previous treatments you have undergone to determine the best approach for your individual 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 determine that orthotics would help you, we use the data from your gait analysis to produce a dynamic cast of each foot – eliminating the need for plaster or foam casting. The dynamic cast is then sent to a team of technicians who custom-manufacture a pair of orthotics precisely for your feet. A variety of orthotic styles are available, ranging from standard sizes to thicker orthotics for support during sports or lighter options that fit into dress shoes.
- Using your Orthotics
After receiving your new orthotics, our trained physios will guide you on their optimal usage, including an injury rehabilitation plan to help in your recovery. In addition, treatments may involve hands-on physiotherapy and at-home exercises that complement your orthotics.
