Foot Orthotics
If you are suffering chronic or acute pain in your legs or feet, at The Perth Podiatrists we will gladly assess your complaint, discuss your options and effectively manage your pain. We will only prescribe functional orthotics if we think there is a real benefit. This will involve a biomechanical analysis of your lower limb function, correction of poor footwear, and a muscle stretching and strengthening program when indicated.
Custom Orthotics
Custom Orthotics & Pre-formed Orthotics
At The Perth Podiatrists, in addition to state-of-the-art custom orthotics, we also provide a range of pre-formed orthotics onsite. In many cases pre-formed orthotics are very effective, and where necessary can be modified to your individual needs to produce a semi-custom foot orthosis. For comfortable and effective orthotics, we offer experienced diagnosis and treatment, coupled with cutting edge equipment. The use of orthotics, therapeutic insoles and inserts for shoes has come a long way. The latest equipment and processes together with careful and expert analysis and prescription can foster excellent results.
Using cutting edge 3D laser scanners, we scan the foot accurately to within one tenth of a millimetre. We then write a prescription based on your needs. A local Perth laboratory, with the aid of a 3D computer aided design and manufacturing process, then accurately and reliably produce your customised orthotics.
Customised functional foot orthoses can effectively manage a range of lower leg issues, relating to poor skeletal alignment and gait anomalies including:
Patella tracking problems
Knee pain
Shin pain
Poor stability
