Alternative To Foot Orthotics
Are you tired and frustrated with wearing foot orthotics?
Are you annoyed at how orthotics limit the range of shoes you can wear?
Have you become so reliant on wearing orthotics, that if you don’t wear them you are in pain?
If so then keep reading as there is an alternative to wearing foot orthotics. Foot Posture Centre podiatrists specialise in helping people find an alternative to foot orthotics. They use a combination of foot mobilisation therapy (FMT), corrective foot exercises as well as stretches. The foot and leg therapy is also combined with postural correction and improved awareness of your posture and gait.
Freedom from orthotics and freedom from foot pain can be achieved when foot mobilisation and corrective exercises are used by podiatrists at the Foot Posture Centre
Have you found your orthotics helpful or painful?
You may have had foot or leg pain in the past and have consulted a podiatrist or other therapist to help you solve your problem. They may have given you a pair of foot orthotics which you may have found helpful in reducing your foot and leg pain. Others may have found them very uncomfortable to wear and resulted in more foot, ankle and leg pain. This may have lead you to give up on them and decide not to wear them anymore and throw them in the back of your cupboard. DO not despair as there is another solution to solve your frustration.
Corrective podiatrists will assess your condition and take a full history to find out what is causing your problem. Your posture and gait patterns will be assessed as well as your joint mobility and range of movement. If there are any restrictions or joints that are misaligned, you will be informed of this. You may be required to have an x-ray of your feet and ankles to confirm the diagnoses.
