What Are the Best Insoles for Flat Feet?
The best insoles for flat feet are ones people actually wear and that are comfortable!
Patients often have had orthotics made on-site, or by someone who is not a doctor so the condition is not properly diagnosed, or are given orthotics that are not appropriate for the kinds of footwear the patient actually wears.
As a result, there are many people who do not end up wearing the orthotics. They may be too rigid, uncomfortable or not tolerated in some other way. Custom-foot orthotics should be comfortable and pleasurable to wear. Dr. Horowitz insists that patients follow up with her to make sure they are happy with the products they purchase.
A diagnosis is different than a simple “assessment”, which is usually conducted by someone who is not a primary health care professional. No referral is needed from a medical doctor to see Dr. Horowitz, as she is a primary health care practitioner, with the training and responsibility to diagnose.
By booking a comprehensive foot examination, which includes thorough history-taking, biomechanical and neurological examination in addition to a state-of-the-art computerized TOG Gait Scan analysis, you have your foot condition properly diagnosed.
Only when armed with a clear diagnosis, will you feel empowered to make the most cost-effective decisions for your unique situation. You will then be able to choose the best treatment options, as well as the best insoles for your flat feet.
