Biomechanics and orthotics
For costum foot orthotics made for you and your condition, you need a podiatrist. Whether for daily life, sport or your unique condition, we have the knowledge necessary to help you achieve your goals.
Our foot orthotics, also called orthopedic insoles, are made from a very precise 3D scan of your foot, or a memory foam imprint, depending on your condition. The podiatrist can both carry out a complete biomechanical examination and prescribe the orthotics on site. During this examination, our podiatrist assesses:
-
The mechanics of the foot and its joints
-
Your gait
-
Some elements of posture relating to the foot
-
The dominant pressure points when standing
Following the examination, it is possible that the conclusion will be that orthotics are not necessary in your case. Your podiatrist will then explain the options available to you. Images can be taken of your posture and your foot so that they can be compared in the futute. Orthotics adapt to your needs. They can be:
-
A very thin, versatile and durable plastic shell that covers a little more than half of the foot
-
A full-length sole made from soft, comfortable materials
-
A hybrid of the two
Orthotics can also be modified free of charge in the first months following their delivery.
