Your feet
are the foundation for the normal balance and
alignment of
your body. Structural problems in the feet, even the
slightest
misalignment of bone and muscle, can alter the way
that you
walk and cause many different problems. Symptoms can
include
localized foot pain, bunions, hammer toes, pain in
the arch
of the foot and heel pain.
Less obvious symptoms may involve leg pain, knee
pain, problems
with the hip, back pain and even neck pain. Your
feet support
your entire weight. Faulty foot mechanics can alter
the even
distribution of your body weight, whilst standing,
walking
or running, and create an increased load on joints
and muscles
elsewhere in the body.
Foot orthotics help
to correct any imbalance by exerting gentle, consistent
pressure
to stabilize the bones of your feet and bring muscles and
bones
back into proper alignment.
What are prescription Orthotics?
Prescription Orthotics look like
insoles, but are bio mechanical medical appliances
that are custom
made to correct your specific foot imbalance.
Orthotics work on
your feet much like glasses work on your eyes – they
reduce stress
and strain on your body by bringing your feet back
into proper alignment.
Orthotics fit into your shoes as comfortably as an
insole – and
they have the advantage of having been made from
precise imprints
of your feet.
