Orthotics near Strathmore

Sometimes, if not most of the time, we tend to take our feet for granted until problems develop. Foot and lower limb conditions can affect your spinal health which can in turn affect the rest of your body. For residents in Strathmore, orthotics services are readily available to address these issues. We recommend that you ask yourself the following questions:

  • Are you suffering from heel pain
  • Do you have flat feet, or fallen arches?
  • Do you get back pain or spine pain?
  • Are you suffering from knee pain?
  • Do you suffer from hip pain?
  • Do you have issues with bunions or shin splints?
  • Do you spend most of your day minding your feet’s condition?
  • Are you a keen athlete and enjoy the challenge of playing sports?

If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, then claim your FREE foot scan on the Foot Levelers digital scanner. This will determine if orthotic therapy is right for you. Insoles that you buy off the shelf are not custom made. It would be unwise to use glasses not your own, so why should you utilise something not designed for you?

Like our eyewear, insoles must be customised. Therefore offering the best possible support and relief from the symptoms and conditions mentioned above is something you will benefit from.Orthotics reduce pain in the feet and legs, as well as the back. They can dramatically improve and maintain a healthy posture for your spine and the rest of your body.

Orthotics FAQs

When is it appropriate to 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 my orthotics work with any shoes?

Technically, you could put orthotics in any shoe, but it depends on the type and fit of the shoe as to how comfortable or manageable they are. Many people find that shoes with a higher heel counter (the part that comes up around your ankle) work better with orthotics, as they keep the orthotics in place. Orthotics should not be too tight. This can lead to more problems.

Are custom orthotics better than over-the-counter inserts?

Custom orthotics are made to fit your feet precisely, based on detailed measurements and analysis of your foot structure and gait. This ensures that they provide the optimal support for your individual needs. In contrast, over-the-counter orthotics are mass-produced and often do not provide a perfect fit. These orthotics may still be beneficial, but they’re unlikely to offer the same benefits as custom orthotics.

How long can custom orthotics last?

The length of time your orthotics will last varies from person to person and depends on how often you wear them and the type of activity you do. If they are well cared for, orthotics can last between 5 and 10 years. The top cover will eventually wear out and need to change before the orthotics can be replaced.

What types of orthotics do you have?

There are many styles and types of orthotics that you can choose from, depending on your preferences.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 may aid in relieving back pain. 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. In general, orthotics should be worn for as long or as is necessary to achieve the desired effects. It could last forever or for a shorter time, depending on your condition.
