Do you wear orthotics? If measured by simply standing still, then you are well protected for a life of standing in just one place. Life is about motion. Your feet are meant to move, Orthotics are meant to be evaluated with both stance and movement to protect and balance your feet throughout your entire upright activities. We stand, walk, and move relying on our feet to help balance our body posture with every step we take.

At PodiatryWorks, we use advanced German technologies to design your orthotic by precisely measuring your foot pressure distribution, sensitivity, and movement when you stand, walk, and even run. Analysing the data collected, combined with your podiatric assessment results, our Podiatrists provide the most complete assessment available of how your feet move inside your shoes to create accurate customized orthotics to actively manage your problem.

A person’s abnormal stance and gait (walking) can be the cause of recurrent postural problems which commonly include back, hip, knee, ankle and foot pain.These maybe related to leg length difference, high arch foot, flat foot or torsion in your pelvis. When we have these abnormalities or misalignment, the body starts to compensate in attempt to balance out the imbalance. This compensation put excessive strain on the joints, ligaments, tendon or muscles. Over time, these structures get overused and cause injuries to the affected area.

We conduct a detailed biomechanical examination of your lower limb and gait analysis using the computerized video analysis tool to identify any abnormalities and compensations that you may have. From the examination results, we will create a suitable treatment plan for your conditions.(More info)
