Orthoses Efficacy for Conditions
Orthoses are effective for
Metatarsalgia and Hallux Abductus
A review of nine studies revealed that custom patient specific orthoses reduced the level of forefoot pain in patients with secondary metatarsalgia and hallux abductus by redistributing pressure at the plantar surface.

Recommended Orthosis
Orthoses are effective
for treating Flatfoot
Orthotics with arch-support benefit patients suffering with flatfoot or pes planus. They help with supporting patients during stance or standing phases of gait, aiding shock absorption around the medial heel and providing propulsion to the big toe and 2-4th metatarsals during level walking.

Recommended Orthosis
Orthoses are essential
for helping Diabetic patients
Orthotics are invaluable for diabetic patients. Custom patient specific orthoses reduce plantar pressure through off-loading which reduces the risk or ulcerization. Two years of orthotic treatment was shown to reduce the reulceration rate from 79% to 15% and amputation rate from 15% to 6%.

Recommended Orthosis
Orthoses are useful
for active patients
In general, foot orthotics have been shown to be useful for preventing overall injury and minimizing stress fractures (Bonanno, 2016). In this study, the same results were not shown to be true for general shock-absorbing insoles. Using quality custom patient specific orthoses matters for real results.
