When prescribed by a biomechanical expert and tailored to a 3D scan of your feet, orthotics have the ability to improve the way you move, help heal injured muscles and tissues, alleviate pressure from painful foot surfaces and significantly improve your quality of life.
Orthotics insert into your shoes and restore the optimal position of your foot, control excessive movement, and where present, offload structures that are painful or inflamed.
