Glenroy Orthotics

Many times, if not all, we take advantage of the comfort our feet brings until we experienced issues with it. Lower limb and foot problems can harm your spinal health, which can in turn affect the rest of your body. For residents in Glenroy, orthotics services are readily available to address these issues. These are the questions you need to ask yourself.:

  • Are you experiencing foot pain?
  • Do you have flat feet or fallen arches?
  • Do you get back pain or spine pain?
  • Are you experiencing knee pain?
  • Do you suffer from hip pain?
  • Are your bunions, shin splints, calluses, or hammer toes causing you discomfort?
  • Do your feet issues trouble you the whole day?
  • Are you passionate about playing sports and want to be the best version of yourself?

If your answer to any of these questions is a “Yes,” then take advantage of our FREE foot assessment and Scan on the Foot Levelers 3D digital foot scanner to see if you would benefit from orthotic therapy.

Orthotics FAQs

When should I get custom orthotics?

Orthotics may be prescribed by your healthcare provider if you have a condition like plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendonitis. However, even if you don’t have a specific diagnosis, but experiencing pain in your feet, ankles, or legs, then you should consult with a professional about whether orthotics is right for you.

Can I put custom orthotics in any shoe?

Although orthotics can technically be put in any shoe, it all depends on how fit and comfortable they are. Shoes with a higher heel count (the part that goes up around your ankle) fit well with orthotics. You also want to ensure that the orthotics don’t make the shoe too tight; if they do, they can cause more problems.

Are custom orthotics better than over-the-counter?

Custom orthotics are made to fit your feet precisely, based on detailed measurements and analysis of your foot structure and gait. They will provide the most appropriate support for your needs. Over-the counter orthotics are often mass-produced and do not always support your feet’s needs. These orthotics may still be beneficial, but they’re unlikely to offer the same benefits as custom orthotics.

How long can custom orthotics be used for?

The life expectancy of your orthotics varies depending on how often they are worn and what kind of activities you engage in. Orthotics can last for anywhere up to 10 years if they are properly cared for. The top cover will eventually wear out and need to change before the orthotics can be replaced.

What different types of orthotics are available?

There are different styles of orthotics available, depending on your individual needs.This includes full and half-length orthotics, slim orthotics suitable for narrower, lower or open shoes and sports orthotics for use during exercise or physical activity.

Are orthotics a good option for back pain?

Orthotics can alleviate back pain in some cases. Orthotics are useful for correcting poor posture and alignment. They can also provide support for the spine and body.

Are orthotics necessary for my daily life?

Each individual’s situation will determine how long you need to wear your orthotics. However, in general, if you are prescribed orthotics, it is recommended that you wear them as long as needed to achieve the desired effect. You may need to wear them for an extended period, or you might only need them for a short time. It all depends on your particular situation.
