Our approach
Here is how we approach orthotic requirements with our customers:
- Understand what the ailment is.
- Review your current footwear and determine if the current footwear is causing the ailment.
- If the current ailment is obviously caused by your current footwear, try wearing more appropriate footwear.
- When selecting more appropriate footwear, remember a firm heel counter, plenty of toe room, a stable sole, and a good secure fit are important. Generally, a good exercise shoe will provide all these attributes.
- If the ailment still exists after wearing more appropriate footwear, seek the opinion of your Podiatrist. Select your podiatrist by asking those around you, who they use and their satisfaction with them.
- Even in selecting a Podiatrist, it is important that you connect with them. A good podiatrist will provide you with a plan on how to rectify that ailment. Initially, it may involve experimenting with off the shelf orthotics and building them up.
- Once you have been prescribed orthotics, you need to ensure your shoe wardrobe is satisfactory to accommodate the orthotics in other words orthotic friendly. Remember in fixing an ailment, initially do everything in your power can to solve the problem.
- The choice of soft or hard orthotics is a conversation that you need to have with your prescribing Podiatrist. Some people find hard orthotics uncomfortable. Some people find the soft orthotics wear out too quickly.
- The size of the orthotic can have a huge bearing on what shoes you can wear. A full-length orthotic will restrict your shoe options if you have a wide foot already. Alternatively, a narrow foot may benefit from a full-length orthotic.
- Keep an open mind when it comes to fixing foot ailments. Your comfort is of critical importance. Often we will suggest the Podiatrist adjust the orthotic slightly to accommodate the shoe.
- Our motto at www.strideshoes.com.au is we want your business for life, not just for one sale. For new orthotic wearers, we strongly recommend that you only buy one pair to start with and get your podiatrist to review them.
- At any of our locations, we are ready to provide you with expert advise and help you find the perfect fit. Alternatively, you can just contact us. Begin to stride with confidence.
