Stride Orthotics provide custom designed supports to joints of the lower limb, e.g. lower leg splints, knee braces, ankle supports, specialist made to measure footwear and foot orthotics (insoles). The Orthotic supports are designed to support joints and muscles of the lower back, hip, knee, ankle, lower leg and foot. Orthotics are prescribed for a variety of reasons, for example: to reduce pain, protect joints and muscles from injury during sport, provide comfort to arthritic joints, improve balance and walking by compensating for any muscle weakness and protect damaged ligaments. Specialist made to measure footwear is prescribed for those that struggle to find good fitting footwear, the footwear design may include hidden support to improve balance and reduce pain. The clinics run in both Glasgow and Edinburgh and each site includes a gait lab in which in-depth analysis of the bodies alignment is carried out utilising the most advanced video gait analysis software. This method of assessment identifies the exact alignment of the spine, hip, knee, foot and leg and any alignment abnormalities. Once the problem has been identified the patient is then prescribed a support to realign the body, usually foot orthotics, and also supplied with an exercise programme which would strengthen the abnormally aligned joint. Initial consultations are FREE and offered in addition to FREE video gait analysis and a FREE CD copy of your unique video analysis. Visit www.strideorthotics.co.uk for more info.
