Frequently Ask Questions
An orthotic is an externally applied device that is designed and fitted to the body to achieve the following:
- Correct biomechanical alignment

- Increase proprioception, balance and coordination
- Reduce pain!
Every step starts from your foot and works up to your knee, hip, lower back and further up. The objective of an orthotic is to change the ground to suit you, further correcting overall posture and gait. Orthotics come in different styles and modalities; hence why we provide manual therapy treatments to work with adjusting to the new angles the orthotics provide to suit every patient.
Our orthotics are crafted based on a detailed assessment of your foot structure, movement, and unique needs. We use advanced measurement techniques to create a personalised fit, ensuring that each orthotic provides optimal support and comfort. This customised approach allows us to address your specific symptoms and goals effectively.
The recommended use of orthotics depends on each person’s condition. Some may benefit from wearing them daily, while others might only need them during certain activities. At Platinum Sports Podiatry, we’ll guide you on how best to use your orthotics and check in on your progress with follow-up appointments.
With proper care, custom orthotics can last anywhere from one to five years, depending on factors like daily wear, foot growth, or physical changes. At Platinum Sports Podiatry, we’ll provide advice on maintaining your orthotics to extend their lifespan and let you know when it might be time for a replacement.
