Orthotics
Orthotics can help align the structure of the foot into the most stable and efficient position for walking and reduce pain in the feet and in joints like the knees and hips. We simplify the complexities of foot biomechanics by offering a range of internationally renowned prefabricated orthotics. Made from premium materials, they are designed to reduce patient waiting time, provide an immediate treatment option and improve patient outcomes.
How we prescribe orthotics
We use a supination resistance measuring device to determine the minimal effective level of orthotic support needed to reduce patient symptoms.
Determining the minimal level of orthotic support is key to successful outcomes. We aim to reduce symptoms and increase patient comfort with minimal intervention by prescribing the lowest level of support.
Visual Assessment- using the Foot Posture Index, and checking for ‘overpronation’ are not indicative of injury causing factors. Forces, loads and stress placed upon tissues are the current accepted parameters to be assessed when prescribing orthotics.

How to pick the right shoes for your feet
A good shoe should have:
A firm heel counter that fits snugly around the back of the foot to avoid slipping during walking
Sufficient depth and width at the toes. There should always be a short space between the tip of the longest toe and the end of the shoe
An upper made from a natural material, such as leather, that allows the foot to 'breathe'
A sole made from a material like rubber. This provides good shock absorption and is less slippery than leather
