Young children with flat feet tend to fall down quite easily and have difficulty running quickly

غالبًا ما يقع الأطفال ذوي الاقدام المسطحة بسهولة أو يصعب عليهم الركض بسرعة

‏The reason for that is when the arches are flat the ankles lean in and the child finds it very difficult to run and walk in that position.

وهذا لأن الأقواس مستقيمة فيميل الكاحلين ويصبح من الصعب على الطفل الركض أو المشي في هذه الوضعية

‏So, they find a better way to run with their feet pointed outwards.

لذا يصبح من الأسهل لهم الركض وأقدامهم موّجهة للخارج

‏When that happens it tends to tilt the upper body forward so in turn they can fall forward quite easily.

عند الركض بهذه الطريقة، يميل الجزء العلوي من الجسد إلى الأمام فيزداد احتمال الوقوع

‏So, we would put something inside their school and sports shoes that lifts the arches and tilts the ankles back to straight giving the child better confidence when running.

لذلك نقوم بوضع شيء داخل الحذاء المدرسي و الرياضي ليرفع الأقواس ويعيد الكاحلين للوضع المستقيم وبالتالي إعادة الثقة للطفل خلال الركض

This gentleman is going to wear sports orthotics inside his sports shoes to keep the ankle straight, the arch up and to prevent his knee pain. Without the orthotic you can see that the arch collapses and the ankle leans in.

Bunions! There are many different types of bunions.

Some are surgical and some are non-surgical so it is important to understand which type of bunion you have.

For example, for the non-surgical type we would put a corrective orthotic inside the shoe to get the ankle straight.

We would recommend toe socks to make the toes aligned and silicone dividers to get the toes in a straight position, and shoes to accommodate these.

We would also incorporate some foot exercises to get this foot back to full alignment and strength again.

In this case here, we have a foot where the bone has displaced. This would need surgery because the head of the bone has enlarged.

So, if we only do surgery in this case the ankle might still lean in and the patient will still suffer after surgery.

So again, we would do what we did in this case to get the foot in perfect alignment and strong before we proceed with surgery to remove the size of the bone.

Look at this joint when on the orthotic and off of the orthotic.

The ankle is leaning in, the arch is collapsed down, and the big toe joint is twisted out of place.

Now, we need to get the ankle straight and to do that we lift the ankle and arch with a very specialised custom orthotic.

Now, look at the alignment. The ankle is straight, the arch is up and the big toe joint is perfectly straight. No more bony protrusions or bunion.

For the relief and alignment of the big toe where there is a bunion or hallux valgus then use the sleeping bunion products.

The Soft pad can be used on the foot for the whole night and the stronger corrective sleeping bunion Night splint can be used for approximately one hour before bedtime.

After removing the strong night splint, then add the toe separator soft pad for sleeping, so the alignment of the big toe is maintained throughout the night.
