Who needs Orthotic Insoles?

Imbalance in your feet can alter the bony structure of your feet and lower legs, foot orthotics may eliminate posture problems and foot and leg pain.

Do I need a doctor's prescription to order custom Orthotic Insoles?

No. Orthotic Insoles are available in foot care stores and via internet sites. Custom orthotics are orthotics that are especially molded to your feet. These need to be made by a podiatrist and will be very expensive.

Why do I need Orthotic Insoles?

Imbalances of the bones of the feet can result in abnormal foot motion (over pronation). This can impair foot function which can result in abnormal rotation of the legs and sometimes affects the knees, hips or back. If we combine these tremendous forces with the need for precise balance, we can see how small structural changes in the foot can make significant differences. Orthotic Insoles help to improve those structural changes.

If I use Orthotic Insoles, will I become dependent on them?

No. Orthotic Insoles simply allow the muscles, tendons and bones of the feet and lower legs to function at their highest potential.

How long will my Orthotic Insoles Last?

Usually between 12 to 18 months.

Does it take time to get used to Orthotic Insoles?

Your feet need time to adjust to the correct biomechanical (walking) position. Orthotics should be gradually used to begin with. During the first 48 hours of use, use the orthotics for approximately 3-4 hours. After this period of time it is recommended you use the orthotics for 6-8 hours. In the second week of use the orthotics can be utilized all day.
