What Are Orthotics?
______________________________________________________
Orthotics, also known as orthoses, are devices inserted into shoes to correct an abnormal or irregular, walking pattern. They range from felt pads to custom-made shoe inserts which allow people to stand, walk, and run more efficiently and more comfortably. While over-the counter orthotics are widely available and may help with mild symptoms, they normally cannot correct the wide range of symptoms that prescription foot orthoses can since they are not custom made to fit an individual’s unique foot structure.

And One Of Our Highly Qualified Team Will Call You To Talk About Your Specific Foot Problem
We have heard patients stories over and over again of patients with multiple Orthotics none of which worked. One patient had 12 pairs of Orthotics from various places and actually never needed any to begin with!
Most don’t know these facts;
- Pronation/flat feet is normal and usually does not require orthotics at all.
- Orthotics are usually not for life, in our clinic they are normally 18-36 months
- Orthotics do not have to be worn all day every day
- In England unfortunately most people handing out Orthotics have done a weekend course or none at all.
We firmly believe that…
Nobody Should Be Given Orthotics Unless They Really Really Need Them
We have made it our mission at Foot Corner to tell people like you the truth regarding orthotics
