Until recently we have referred out to podiatrists for patients requiring orthotics.
Due to many patients not being happy with the orthotics and being unable to
wear them in most shoes, we have found another option..
|
|
| |
STEP FORWARD ORTHOTICS are better for a number of reasons |
| |
 |
They small enough to fit into ballet pumps and backless shoes, ensuring higher compliance amongst patients especially females.
|
|
Unlike normal custom made orthotics which is a 'crutch for the foot, Step forward orthotics provide a dynamic mould of the normal foot. This allows for correction of tight tendons and strengthening of weak muscles. This is shown by improvements in the pre and post foot print after approximately 2 years of wearing them. |
|
They correct the 3 arches of the foot, rather than just the longitudinal arch that many podiatrists use. |
|
They cost $360 + $15 delivery, much cheaper than custom made orthotics, and most private health rebates still apply. We are working on HBF!!! |
|
They have a 95% success rate, and our experience with the custom made orthotics has been much less than that. |

Our practitioners will take a print of your feet, and explain the imperfections. We then send for the orthotic which is sized to your foot, and fit at your next appointment. This takes approximately 2-3 working days.
