The type that is used depends on the activity in which the patient is involved, the shoes they want to wear, and the underlying foot problem. There are many different types of orthotics. Orthotics are angled individually to control the heel and forefoot, and to prevent excessive motion. Many orthotics look like arch supports, but they are not intended to support the arch. They sometimes have a positive benefit on the hip, knees and back as well.

Quite simply they help your feet work more efficiently. This redistribution is important and one result from this is often less fatigue when walking, pain relief to the feet ankles and knees.

They do this by controlling joint movement, and by altering some angles to prevent excessive motion.

Orthotics reposition the foot structure to achieve optimum skeletal balance, thereby reducing the stress and pain on the joints that are causing the discomfort. The most common treatment for biomechanical problems is the use of special shoe inserts known as Orthotics.
