Instant Custom Orthotics

Instant Custom Orthotics

At Sky Podiatry we have the equipment and skills to create instant custom orthotics between two to three days.

Custom orthotics are uniquely designed innersoles for your shoes that can assist with the treatment of flat or high arched feet, plantar fasciitis, back, knee, and bunion pain. Following a biomechanical assessment using top end pressure plate technology, we are able to take a scan of your feet and create instant custom orthotics.  

Our podiatrists at Sky Podiatry are skilled and have the experience to create instant custom orthotics. If you need custom orthotics, and fast, we can make it happen. With our LaserCam Orthotics System we have the ability to create custom orthotics uniquely for you between two-to-three days, meaning, you won’t be waiting for weeks to get back on your feet.

How do instant custom orthotics work?

Once you receive your instant custom orthotics within two to three days after your appointment, you will now have the resources to reduce the internal and external forces which are causing specific parts of your foot discomfort and pain. Ultimately, orthotics is also used to treat injury and reduce foot pain.

Ground Reaction Force

Orthotics adjust the pressure coming from the ground to the foot when you stand, walk, or run. By altering these forces through your foot we can help you achieve better foot function, and reduce any forces that result in injury.

Instant Custom Orthotics Design

Depending on where the pain in your foot is located, the design of the orthotic may vary as specific features can change location, magnitude and timing of force acting upon the foot.

Neurofeedback

Orthotics can assist in sending sensory feedback to your brain, allowing it to change its movement whilst walking. These signals can send corrective movements to your feet, and in due course improving function, avoiding pain, and preventing injury.

What Conditions Does Orthotics Help? 

The main reason people need custom orthotics is to treat a range of lower limp issues, correct biomechanical issues and reduce pain. Some common custom orthotics can help treat include: 

●        Planter Fasciitis

●        Bunions

●        Knee Pain

●        Flat Feet

●        High Arches

●        Bursitis

●        Neuroma

●        Injuries

●        Archilles Tendinopathy

At Sky Podiatry we customise the design and features to provide you with the finest instant custom orthotics treatment. To compliment your orthotics, your podiatrist will always recommend any footwear changes, exercises, and in some cases medications or Shockwave Therapy to help with any pain, and discomfort

Custom orthotics provide a wide range of benefits, including:

●        Improving the health of your knees, ankle, and back

●        Correcting foot abnormalities

●        Improve overall health and athletic performance

●        Reduce back pain

●        Relieve pain and pressure

At Sky Podiatry, our aim is to minimise and hopefully stop foot and lower limb pain by improving the function of the foot, as well as treating current issues and conditions. 

What shoes can I put my custom orthotics in?

Wearing proper orthotic-friendly shoes can help improve function of your orthotics. Having the right shoes allow you to avoid any potential issues such as fit. Thankfully, orthotic friendly shoes have become a lot nicer in the last few years, removing the worry about wearing styles that you don’t like.

Your shoes should have the following features:

●  An enclosed heel with firm heel counter

● A firm midsole

● A wide midsole

● A removable footbed

● Enough depth and width for your feet

● Minimal heel height

At Sky Podiatry, our aim for all orthotic podiatry is to minimise and hopefully stop foot and lower limb pain by improving the function of the foot, as well as treating current issues and conditions. For more information, book a consultation today.
