FAQs
-
Whether you're experiencing minor foot discomfort or a more severe issue, a foot orthotic can be beneficial.
It's important to note that a thorough assessment by a footwear and orthotic expert, such as a Canadian Certified Pedorthist, is necessary to determine whether a foot orthotic can help address a patient's foot, leg, or even back problem.
-
The lifespan of a foot orthotic varies and is influenced by several factors unique to each patient. The materials used to make the orthotic, the structure of the patient's foot, age, physical condition, and current activity level all have an impact. It is important to note that the lifespan should not be based on when the cover material wears out, but rather on how long it provides the necessary support, correction, and pressure redistribution to the foot. If symptoms reappear, it is recommended that the orthotic be reassessed to determine if modifications or a new device are necessary.
