Orthotic Therapy

It is estimated that 80% of people have problems with their gait or unstable feet. The most common problem is foot pronation i.e. the foot collapses inwards and may contribute to bunions, calluses, shin splints, spurs, plantar fasciatis, arthritis, knee pain, hip pain, lowback pain, even headaches!

If your feet are lacking proper support it may affect the entire body all the way up to the head. The most common reason why foot pronation occurs is because the surfaces that we use these days such as tarmac, concrete, floorboards etc. are all too hard for the feet to cope with. A customised orthotic is the best way to support your feet to avoid future damage. Prevention is the best cure!

At Peak Potential Bulleen, we use TOG GaitScan, a pressure analysis and diagnostics tool to map the bio-mechanics of your feet. The data obtained from this scan together with clinical findings allows us to have a customised pair of orthotics produced specifically for your foot profile.
