Footwear
& Insoles

The most important factor for the orthotics to function correctly is your footwear. Use common sense when choosing the type and style of your shoes. Please keep in mind that some shoes are not suitable to be worn with orthotics, they may be too narrow or too shallow.

To help with this we do recommend that you remove any extra padding, arch pads, heel padding, thick cushion liners etc from your footwear before inserting the orthotics.

Wearing
Guidelines

Commence wearing your orthotics in the morning and follow the guidelines.

You may experience minor aches and pains in your back, hip, knee, ankle and foot during the break in period, this is not uncommon, which is why we recommend breaking them in gradually over 1 -4 weeks.

You may encounter some discomfort during this break-in period, if so, shorten the wearing time.

If the discomfort continues over a period of time, then your orthotics may need a minor adjustment. This is quite normal, and all part of the process of getting your body and foot back into the correct alignment. If this is the case please call or email us to discuss.
