Discover the Perfect Walk with Custom Orthotics

Custom orthotics are specially designed shoe inserts that provide support, cushioning, and correction for your feet. Unlike over-the-counter insoles, our custom orthotics are precisely crafted to match your unique foot structure and biomechanics.

Whether you’re dealing with chronic foot pain, recovering from an injury, or looking to optimise your athletic performance, our expert podiatrists will create orthotics tailored specifically to your needs.

Our Custom Orthotics Process

Common Orthotics Questions

Find answers to frequently asked questions about custom orthotics.

How long do custom orthotics last?

With proper care, custom orthotics typically last 2-5 years. The lifespan depends on factors such as your activity level, body weight, and how well you maintain them. We recommend regular check-ups to assess wear and determine when replacement is needed.

Will my health insurance cover custom orthotics?

Many private health insurance policies include coverage for custom orthotics under their extras cover. The amount covered varies by policy and provider. We can provide you with a detailed receipt and any necessary documentation for your claim. We also offer payment plans to make orthotics more accessible.

How long does it take to get used to orthotics?

Most patients adjust to their new orthotics within 2-4 weeks. We recommend gradually increasing wear time, starting with a few hours per day and building up to full-day wear. Some initial discomfort is normal as your feet adapt to the new support. We provide detailed break-in instructions and are available for follow-up adjustments.

Can I use orthotics in different types of shoes?

Yes, we can create orthotics designed for specific shoe types or activities. Many patients have multiple pairs – one for everyday shoes, one for athletic shoes, and one for work boots. We’ll discuss your lifestyle and footwear needs during your assessment to determine the best solution.

What's the difference between custom orthotics and over-the-counter insoles?

Custom orthotics are precisely manufactured based on detailed measurements and biomechanical analysis of your unique feet. They’re made from medical-grade materials and designed to address your specific conditions. Over-the-counter insoles are mass-produced and offer generic support that may not address your individual needs effectively.

Do I need a referral to get custom orthotics?

No referral is necessary. You can book directly with our podiatrists for an orthotic assessment. However, if you have a referral from your GP or specialist, please bring it along as it may be helpful for insurance claims and provides additional medical context.
