Why Wear Foot Orthotics?
Foot orthotics are shoe inserts that are specially designed and manufactured to meet the prescribed specifications of a patient. They are generally of better quality compared to the ones available in the market. Some benefits of wearing these insoles include:
- Corrects an abnormal walking pattern
- Reduces chronic/ acute foot pain
- Provides support to your feet
- Protects against foot deformities
- Avoids flat feet conditions
- Provides better foot alignment
- Relieves pressure on the foot
- Improves overall foot mechanics
- Lowers foot extremity & stress
How We Make Custom Foot Orthotics?
The reason behind your foot pain determines the type of foot orthotics that will work the best for your condition. At Halton Physio, we begin by doing a computerized scan of your foot. While the scan is being done, our physiotherapists will rotate your ankle, placing it in a “sub-talar neutral” position. This scan results in accurate results with better alignment and improves support for your knees, hips, and back.
We manufacture these removable shoe inserts or insoles by taking an impression of your foot with a plaster cast mould or 3D laser scan.
