| What Are Orthotics? |
Orthotics are medical shoe inserts designed for your specific foot imbalance. They provide correction and assistance to your feet and may relieve discomfort in your feet, legs, knees, hips or back.
They work on feet in the same way braces work on teeth - by exerting gentle pressure to realign and stabilise the bones in your feet and restore your natural walking pattern.
They are usually made from impressions of your feet, however in some cases a specific premade orthotic may be an option.
Research has shown that
60 - 70%
of people have abnormally functioning feet

Foot
