WHAT ARE PHYSIOMOTION3D ORTHOTICS?

Orthotics are devices worn in shoes that are either temporarily or long term, to provide biomechanical correction to your feet. Orthotics prescribed at PHYSIOMOTION3D are predominantly slimline, comfortable to wear and can be used in nearly all of your shoes and runners except sandals which can be ordered separately and manufactured as a prescription sandal.

Other types of footwear such as football boots and high heel shoes can be accommodated with specific orthotic devices successfully. It is not essential to purchase new footwear to accommodate our orthotics, we work around your existing foot and shoe type as much as possible. Ideally, if the existing insoles are removable there is the advantage to have more space to insert them. 

Our Cork orthotics clinic provide three types of orthotics for our clients.

Injury Prevention

Foot conditions, such as plantar fasciitis, arthritis, flat feet, and other injuries can result in acute and chronic pain on various parts. These are often triggered by misaligned foot structures. With custom orthotics, your feet are enhanced with the right cushion and support, affecting pain relief.

Discreet Foot Support

Orthotic insoles are designed to anchor your feet for stable walking, running, or standing. While some shoes claim to provide your feet with anatomical support, they are not built for every type of foot. You will need high-performance orthotics to leverage optimal support and balance.

Injury Prevention

If you spend time standing, exercising, or running, you may suffer from foot injuries. Custom made orthotics help protect your feet against sprains, fractures, muscle stress, and other injuries. They help your feet with the necessary alignment and support which help prevent injuries.

Enhanced Athletic Performance

Your athletic performance is dependent on your leg and foot movements. Orthotics play a critical role in facilitating foot protection, lowered muscle fatigue, shock absorption, and improved foot movements for better sporting.

Orthotics Cork - Frequently Asked Questions

Orthotics are designed to provide your feet with the necessary support as a generally corrective mechanism. They can aid in treating and preventing various medical conditions, including arthritis, bursitis, and plantar fasciitis. For example, flat foot orthotics are helpful in treating the flat feet.
Different orthotic designs are built to solve unique foot problems and conditions. For instance, orthotics for bunions and hammertoes are customised to slow the progression of bunions and hammertoes. Orthotics also act as anatomical anchors to your feet.
Different people get accustomed to orthotics within varying spans. However, it can take two to four weeks to get used to orthotic insoles for the average adult. Wearing your insoles regularly influences how fast your feet adjust to them.
A standard pair of foot insoles should last for about 1 to 5 years. However, orthotics can last longer or wear out faster depending on multiple factors. Such factors include the frequency of usage, the material used, and the technical demands of your foot condition.
Physiotherapy clinics provide orthotics. If you feel you are in need of orthotics, the best option for you is to ask a Chartered Physiotherapist for a Gait Analysis and this will help determine your need for orthotics.
If you stop wearing your orthotics before the recommended date then it may lead to issues. Either your condition will worsen or you will be back to square one. Its highly advised to wear your orthotics for the recommended duration.
