"Foot orthotics work by placing the foot and lower limb in a more advantageous position. Thus improving applied tissue stress"

 (Heiderscheit, Hamill and Tibero, 2001).

​

Research has shown foot orthotics can help:

• Treat Plantar fasciitis.

• Treatment of early stage Posterior Tibial Tendon tendonitis/ dysfunction.

• Improve balance and improved feeling of stability.

• Reduce excessive foot motion.

• Reduce ball of foot pressure in high arch foot types and people with Rheumatoid Arthritis

• Reduce Bunion pain- Hallux Abducto-valgus pain.

• Improve foot and leg stability in flexible and hypermobile flat foot conditions.

​

More importantly we find in clinical practice patient matched foot orthotics can be highly effective at reducing  pain in many people. Particularly when paired with knowledge of the tissue under stress, an individuals foot structure and understanding how that foot and limb performs dynamically   (Jodi Tanner, 2024).
