Custom Orthotics in Sydney’s Northern Beaches
Smarter foot care. Not everyone needs orthotics, and we’ll tell you if you don’t.
At The Foot Company, we take a modern approach to foot health. Too often, orthotics are over-prescribed when the real issue can be fixed with strength training, footwear changes, or simple movement tweaks. That’s why every consult starts with a full assessment, so you get the right treatment for your body.
We only prescribe orthotics when they’re truly needed. Our podiatrists may recommend custom-made orthotics if you have:
Persistent foot pain such as chronic heel pain, plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, or bunion pain
Poor foot or ankle alignment (flat feet, high arches, or collapsed arches)
High-pressure areas like neuromas, bursitis, plantar plate tears, or recurring corns and calluses
Leg length differences causing uneven loading or back pain
In-toeing or out-toeing that affects walking or running patterns
What to Expect at Your Orthotics Appointment
We take a smarter, more holistic approach combining expert biomechanical assessment with strength-based rehabilitation to treat the root cause of your pain.
Comprehensive Assessment
Our sports podiatrists look at your history, goals, movement patterns, injuries, and range of motion. This helps us decide whether orthotics are the right option, or if strength training or rehab will be more effective.
Tailored Solutions
Like glasses, orthotics should be unique to you. We’ll recommend one of three approaches based on your assessment:
- Custom made orthotics
- Off the shelf innersoles
- A strength and rehab plan without orthotics
Health Fund Benefits
Most health funds cover podiatry and orthotics. Instant rebates are available at our clinics, making treatment affordable and accessible.
Not Sure if You Need Orthotics?
That’s okay, that’s why we assess first. You’ll leave your consult with a clear plan tailored to your needs, whether that’s orthotics, strength rehab, footwear advice, or simple training modifications.
