Custom foot insoles
Custom foot insoles are removable medical devices, custom-made, used to improve foot function through a better redistribution of load and a correct realignment of bones and joints.
They are indicated in all those cases where an altered weight-bearing pattern causes painful conditions in the foot or may lead to problems in other parts of the body, even in the absence of symptoms.
Decisive in sport to prevent overload injuries, linked both to anatomical faults and to the characteristics of training: the forces generated during athletic movement can far exceed body weight and the resistance of the tissues.
In this case, the extent of the damage would involve not only foot function but the entire musculoskeletal system, negatively affecting athletic performance.
Essential to prevent the development of lesions in the diabetic foot, they are equally indicated to relieve pain in the arthritic and rheumatic foot, especially in older people, where chronic painful conditions can result in genuine partial disability, accelerating ageing through the loss of independence and increasing the risk of falls.
Also beneficial in everyday life, in leisure time and at work, where troublesome weight-bearing imbalances reduce quality of life and lead to postural adaptations that are harmful to other joints and to correct movement.
They therefore represent a valuable tool at the preventive, curative and rehabilitative level.
They can be used in many ways: fitted both inside sports and leisure footwear and in adapted sandals.
After a careful clinical and instrumental examination, the podiatrist develops the orthotic plan taking into account the needs of each individual patient.
