If you suffer from foot pain, knee and back pain, diabetes, arthritis, are an athlete or simply want to feel more comfortable on your feet, orthotics may be the answer.

Orthotics are custom made inserts for your shoes which help correct the positioning of the bones in the feet, ankles and knees. Many foot problems are caused by the stretching of connective tissue (muscles and ligaments) which are placed under repetitive or constant stress.

If these connective tissues continue to stretch over time, they cause injury, aggravation and bone instability in the foot. This leads to issues such as over-pronation or fallen arches. Foot orthotics can also reduce muscular fatigue and may help to promote more efficient muscle performance.

At WA Surgical Bootmakers, we make orthotics from a variety of material to fulfil patients requirements – and all of our orthotics are manufactured on site.

We also work with selected health fund providers (HBF & MBP) for gap free services. Check your health fund for availability.
