Orthotic-Insoles

The use of Orthotic Insoles

The Almighty’s best creation is mankind. But in this entire human race, the Supreme Power has taken care to make each individual different. No two people have the same finger prints! Wow! But just as versatile we are as individuals; we seemingly have different foot types. None can be called as a deviancy. It would be better to call it as ‘different’. But our foot types can become painful. Each foot type has different set of problems and requires special care. Keeping this in mind we have a range of orthopaedic insoles available with us. Arch and heel pain, plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis and other foot problems can be taken care by insoles. All these problems arise from not having enough support while we stand or walk. Your foot doctor will suggest you to go for custom orthotics or insoles based upon the severity of pain. Orthopaedic arch supports can be worn by people who are cautious about not developing any sort of foot problem in future. These insoles are designed by engineers taking factors like balance and cushioning into consideration. Ladies more often cause harm to their foot by wearing heels. Although heels look nice and are high on fashion, they are in no way in compliance with the health of our foot. They can cause much irreversible harm. But with orthotic insoles you can get the stability and support you need. They are mostly semi-rigid in structure for flexibility and cushioning. There is a special heel cradle which gives you extra comfort while walking. Orthopaedic insoles are mostly mobile, which means that no matter which shoe you choose to wear in a particular day, you can always insert them into it. Orthotic insoles are also effective in flat foot problem. Our Podiatry clinic is a one stop solution for all kinds of insoles in Abu Dhabi.
