Find Comfort With Handmade Orthotics

By Arline Bradley


Insoles are used to correct or support the foot because of certain biomechanical foot disorders. Their designs vary depending on whether they are for adults or children. Each individual has a unique foot design that must be factored when producing the insole. Enhancements on handmade orthotics target particular areas with the aim of addressing the underlying problem.

Free initial consultation is provided by the physiotherapists. The aim of this session is to provide background information to facilitate a comprehensive assessment. The tests done and information given provides a basis for diagnosis and helps in crafting the way forward. No commitment fee will be required from the client at this stage.

The laboratories contracted to produce the orthotics are reputable and boast of incredible years of experience. They are manned by highly skilled technicians who ensure that high quality products are developed. They have the latest technology and equipment to produce high quality accessories that are customized to meet the needs of individual clients.

The insoles produced are inserted in shoes to provide perfect balance. Natural positioning eliminates pressure from joints and bones and protects the body frame from damage. Continuous poor positioning affects the body especially the hips, shoulders and back bone. This will have a long term and very painful repercussion when allowed to go on.

A number of important lifestyle and physiological factors determine the kind of sole each one gets. Daily activity determines the changes in foot positioning. Your choice of shoes and the shape of your leg also determine the product that you get. An example is the disposition of office workers, field based staff and sports persons. Each works in a different terrain and requires a unique sole.

Laser technology supports diagnosis to enhance precision. This allows manufacturers to produce unique features for each individual. The technology can detect slight distortions and variations to ensure accuracy. Using the wrong sole transfers pressure to other areas cause damage on muscles, ligaments and joints.

Special insoles have such features as heel cups that hold the foot in the right position. They also come with arch supports that prevent the middle foot from sagging due to lack of space. A special visco elastic foam is used because it can handle changing pressure. The shape of each foot determines the extent of the raise. It is designed to provide adequate support regardless of differences in the feet.

The use of medically designed insoles is not meant to address comfort issues but eliminate the possibility of pain from poor positioning. This also helps to optimize the functions of the foot. No part of the body will be under undue pressure or discomfort. This ensures a long, productive and high quality life. Sports men are able to achieve more because their body frame is correctly positioned.

Individuals should watch-out for such symptoms as painful bones, general aches, hammer toes and calluses in order to seek professional assistance. They arise out of collapsed or fallen arches. Inner soles align the body through natural positioning to help relief the pain. The soles provide an alternative to medical and surgical interventions.
