PAROMED CUSTOM ORTHOTICS

Custom Orthotics fitting by professional PodiatristWhat are custom orthotics? – Foot orthoses are shoe inserts designed to improve your foot and leg mechanics so that your feet can function more efficiently, improving performance and preventing injury.

The podiatrist who treats your lower limbs and feet, who has also analysed and diagnosed your foot and gait pattern is the same person to design your custom full length EVA orthotics. First in Feet Podiatry do not send your orthotics to be modelled and made by a third party. By using one of the best 3D scanning, modelling and milling CAD/CAM orthotic systems in the world, we are able to produce some the best foot orthotics in the world.

When are orthotics used? – In cases of trauma, overuse injuries and general lower back/hip/knee/leg/ankle/foot pain, your Podiatrist may prescribe orthotics after a comprehensive assessment, taking into account your own biomechanics, footwear, occupational and lifestyle factors.

  • Lower Back Pain (if foot mechanics is a contributing factor)
