Foot Orthotics Prescriptions
Functional Foot Orthotics
Depending on the diagnosis, the podiatrist may prescribe a functional orthotic designed to change the way the joints of the foot and lower limb function during walking. Consult a podiatrist to get the benefits of a functional foot orthotic.
Accommodative Foot Orthotics
The accommodative foot orthotic requires a prescription. It aims to relieve the pressure – in terms of magnitude and duration – from a painful or injured area on the bottom of the foot. These insoles facilitate walking because they are less rigid and more comfortable.
Dynamic Orthotics
We offer dynamic orthotics that can be as versatile and as thin as possible to fit most shoes, if the patient's condition allows it. The patient can therefore transfer their corrective orthotic from one shoe to another without having to buy new shoes.
Advanced Imaging Technology
CryoVizion is an imaging system that evaluates your posture with highly detailed images of the body. In addition to being scientifically proven, the results lead to an accurate diagnosis that supports the best possible treatment. For 10 years, this technology has allowed us to better understand and objectively assess the progress of treatment.
The Steps in Foot Orthotics
Complete Podiatric Evaluation
Before prescribing foot orthotics, the podiatrist will perform a medical examination, including a case history, a review of major and minor complaints, and an anatomical palpation. If necessary, additional tests will be done, including radiography, ultrasound, magnetic resonance, or referral to a specialist. At the end of the process, the podiatrist compiles the information, makes a diagnosis, and determines whether a foot orthotic is advised. Only a doctor or a podiatrist can diagnose and prescribe foot orthotics.
Comprehensive Biomechanical Evaluation
The examination assesses the biomechanical posture, body alignment, range of motion of the joints, and patient’s gait. This comprehensive review includes more than 70 different tests and observations of the lower limbs. It will help determine the prescription of foot orthotics.
Importance of Foot Molding
The custom mould of the foot is important. It is designed in several different ways depending on the desired treatment and the controlled positioning of the foot. This step is essential in obtaining an effective foot orthotic.
