Prescription orthotics look like insoles, but are biomechanical medical appliances that are custom made to correct your specific foot imbalance.  Orthotics fit in your shoe as comfortably as an insole, and have the advantage of having been made from precise imprints of your feet.

 

Poor foot function and alignment may be the cause of pain you are experiencing in your feet, knees, hips or back.  Prescription orthotics can help to relieve your discomfort by realigning and stabilising the bones of your feet, in turn restoring your natural walking pattern.

 

Prescription orthotics are fabricated in a laboratory by highly skilled technicians.  Each patient’s orthotics are designed to meet the individual biomechanical and lifestyle needs of the patient.  The orthotics are manufactured using 100% memory thermoplastic, in 1mm, 2mm, 3mm and 3.5mm control options.  The material provides enough rigidity to support the foot while simultaneously offering the foot the right amount of flexibility to properly absorb ground reaction forces.  The orthotics produced by The Orthotic Group for Performance Podiatry are guaranteed for life against breakage.
