Why You Might Need Custom Orthotics

Your feet are your foundation—when they’re misaligned or overworked, the impact travels upward to your knees, hips, and lower back.

Unlike off-the-shelf inserts, our orthotics are custom-moulded to fit your foot structure and movement pattern for long-term comfort and support.

At North East Physiotherapy, we often recommend custom orthotics for patients dealing with:

  • Plantar fasciitis or heel pain
  • Flat feet or fallen arches
  • Overpronation or supination
  • Shin splints and knee pain
  • Hip and lower back discomfort linked to gait issues
  • Foot pain from standing or walking long hours
  • Arthritis or diabetic foot concerns
  • Post-injury recovery (e.g. ankle sprains)

The Benefits of Custom Orthotics

Getting fitted for custom orthotics at our Dublin clinic offers more than just foot comfort—it can transform your overall movement and quality of life.

Benefits include:

  • Improved alignment and posture
  • Reduced foot, knee, hip, and back pain
  • Enhanced shock absorption while walking or running
  • Increased stability and balance
  • Prevention of recurring injuries
  • Better endurance and performance for athletes
  • Comfort during long periods of standing or activity

When combined with physiotherapy, orthotics can support faster recovery and prevent future flare-ups of chronic pain or dysfunction.

  • Excellent physiotherapist, would highly recommend. John is very knowledgeable and thorough, and clearly cares about getting the best outcome for his patients. I have seen John for two separate injuries in the past few years, and both times the care I received was second to none.

Custom Orthotics FAQs

We start with a full biomechanical assessment, including a gait analysis and posture evaluation. Based on this, we determine if orthotics would benefit your movement and reduce pain.

Yes. We take precise measurements and impressions of your feet to ensure a perfect fit. These are then sent to a specialist lab for fabrication.

Absolutely. Misalignment in the feet can cause strain on joints up the kinetic chain. Correcting foot mechanics can significantly reduce pressure on knees, hips, and the lower back.

Many Irish health insurance plans offer partial reimbursement for custom orthotics. We’ll provide documentation to help you claim.

Not at all. Orthotics are also helpful for people who spend long hours on their feet or want to improve their performance, comfort, and posture.
