FOOT ORTHOTICS | Pierre Oosthuizen Podiatrist | Nelspruit

Our orthoses are custom made.

Cast and mould technique

After a thorough physical examination our podiatrist will make a plaster of Paris mould of your feet. It is sent to the lab where it is custom made. By hand.

Prescribed orthotics improve foot pain and can be part of foot pain treatment. Also helps with pediatric podiatry foot complaints, such as flat feet and clumsiness.

Wearing your orthoses

Wear your orthoses daily.

Wear it in all shoes (that have enough space).

Wipe it using a soapy solution, when it needs cleaning.

Wear it in gradually: only a couple of hours on the first day. Increase the wearing time by one hour per day the next day and each day thereafter.

When it hurts, remove it and wear it only the next day: you'll get used to the orthoses.

Remember to contact your podiatrist if the orthoses doesn't feel right. We will help you and make adjustments to the devices if needed.
