Foot orthoses are shoe inserts designed to support, align, or improve the function of the foot. They are also often commonly referred to as ‘orthotics’. Orthoses fit comfortably inside your shoes. Orthoses provide valuable long-term solutions in the treatment and prevention of flat feet, high arched feet, corns and callous by redistributing the pressure of the body's weight on the feet. Orthoses also help with rehabilitation of acute and chronic foot conditions such as tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, recurrent ankle sprain and stress fractures, by providing consistent postural control. A number of biomechanical tests are conducted including a gait analysis and testing your muscles for any weakness. Beaconsfield Podiatry offer several foot orthoses including; pre-fabricated devices (off the shelf) or custom made orthotics that are 100% customized to your foot. |
