Your Feet Deserve Better

Orthotics Australia specialise in the manufacture of precision custom made Foot Orthotics.
Foot Orthotics are devices that fit inside your shoes to help stabilise and correct poor foot posture.

Here at Orthotics Australia we consider ourselves to be one of the market leaders in the manufacture of EVA Foot Orthotics.
Your orthotists that starts the treatment follows the treatment all the way through form casting, cast modifications, manufacture, fitting and reviews of the foot orthotics.
And is one of the few facilties that manufactures all its custom made foot orthotics in-house.

Each foot is an engineering masterpiece. The foot is made up of 26 bones, 33 joints and more than 100 muscles, tendons and ligaments.
We tend to take this for granted until something goes wrong or we develop pain.
Biomechanical problems affecting the feet can increase stresses within the foot structures and the surrounding soft tissues, creating localised pain in the foot,
ankle and also problems in the lower limbs,
knees, hips and back. Correction of poor foot biomechanics with Foot Orthotics can improve and prevent many types of symptoms such as:

Forefoot Pain (Metatarsalgia )
Arch Strain (Plantar Fasciitis)
Policeman’s Heel (Heel Spur)
Ankle Pain (Tibialis Dysfunction, Lateral Impingement Syndrome)
Shin Pain (Compartmental Syndrome, Shin Splints)
Knee Pain (Chondramalcia Patella, Patella Tibial Syndrome)
 
The aim of a Foot Orthosis is to correct dysfunctional biomechanics and therefore:

Reduce pain
Provide support
Prevent or halt the development of foot deformity
Provide better positioning
Relieve pressure on a certain area of the foot
Improve the overall biomechanical function of the foot
Improve pelvic alignment
Reduce lower limb torsion and knee stress

At Orthotics Australia  we believe in a holistic approach to any biomechanical problem, we understand that the underlying problem may not always be located
around the area of the body that develops the symptoms. In some cases the problem may lie in a number of areas, such as poor posture, pelvic malalignment, leg length discrepancies, tight or poorly toned muscles.

Carbon fibre and polypropylene orthotics can be made upon request, however we recomend our EVA technology of manufacture so we can fine tune the orthotic even further in the two months after you receive your orthotics.
We understand that custom made orthotics are not for everyone. We have a great range of Off the shelf foot orthotics which can be fitted by our staff and adjusted if required.

If we do not feel that your problem is caused primarily by your foot position or poor biomechanics. We will not prescribe you any Foot Orthotics.
