MOULDED INSOLES
The sole of the foot is the
primary method of supporting the body. The lack of support
can lead to problems both in the foot but also higher up the body
such as the knee, the hip, the back...
Specialist moulded
insoles increase the contact between your foot and the
insole, and more important help improve balance and
co-ordination.
if you 're not sure wether
moulded orthotic-insoles would benefit you could discuss it with
your occupational therapist, physiotherapist, chiropodist or
podiatrist
the
procedure:
-
we use a special foam box to take
a foot impression
-
then we make a cast,mould of your
foot
-
finally we build the insole on
the mould we have created , by using thermoplastic
material, available in 3 densities(soft, medium,
hard)
