If you think you may benefit from orthopaedic footwear, book a consultation with our Kitchener-Waterloo Chiropodist at Family Foot and Orthotics Clinic. He will conduct a full assessment of your lower limbs and let you know if orthopaedic shoes will be right for you. Give us a call today.
Orthopaedic shoes are shoes that are specifically designed to support or accommodate the mechanics and structure of the foot, ankle and leg. They have a number of medically beneficial features and functions that separate them from everyday footwear. The more abnormal your foot mechanics are the more likely you will require orthopaedic shoes.
Anyone suffering from any of the following conditions can benefit greatly from wearing orthopaedic shoes:
Swollen Feet – Edema
Plantar Fasciitis – Heel Pain
Flat Feet – Fallen Arches
Bunions – Hallux Valgus
Hammertoes
Heel Spurs
Diabetes
Arthritis
Patients recovering from foot surgery
