3D Printed Orthotics

What is a custom orthotic?

A custom orthotic is a device designed to align the foot and ankle into the most anatomically efficient position. They look like insoles, but are biomechanical medical appliances that are custom made to correct your specific foot imbalance. They help to reduce stress and strain on your body by bringing your feet back into proper alignment. About 80% of human beings will face foot related problems at some point in life so it’s very important to relieve or prevent these problems.

There is no guess work involved as they have the advantage of having been made from precise imprints of your feet from the data gathered by the Footscan and created using a 3D printer. These insoles are created by a company called Phits and they use high grade ultralight polyamide, specially selected to provide feet with the best comfort and most functional support. Phits insoles are a solution for every type of activity and for any type of shoe: regular shoes, running shoes, safety shoes, football boots and cycling shoes to name a few.

How can having a custom orthotic help me?

Orthotics support your foot and ankle during weight-bearing movements like walking and running. These custom insoles align the joints within the foot providing stability and comfort. This allows for more normalized weight distribution throughout your body, significantly reducing your pain and discomfort and helping to prevent injuries within multiple joints. Your feet are your foundations so it’s very important that these are as stable as possible to help the rest of your body. Runners absolutely love this product as it can help with any current injuries but help to prevent further ones!

How much does the assessment cost?

There are 2 appointment options:

Option 1:

We have integrated the Footscan analysis within the Fit2Go Body Screen so that we can get a full detailed picture of the strengths or weaknesses of your muscles and joints and how they are all interacting with one another. This is great value at £80 (20% off). The analysis done within the Fit2Go Body Screen will indicate whether you actually require an orthotic or not. If the Footscan indicates that you would benefit from an orthotic then we will require an additional appointment to ensure time to get the perfect fit and to make sure it is suited to your activity type or level. This will only take 15 mins and will cost £20.

Option 2:

A Footscan analysis can be done with our trained therapist who can do a dynamic gait analysis and discuss any additional adjustments to your insole to make it a perfect fit! This is £53 for 30 mins.

How durable are they?

Phits orthotics last up to 3 times longer than traditional insoles. They’re sure to out last at least some pairs of shoes! These 3D-Printed orthotics are also low maintenance. After 3-5 years sometimes the top layer of the insole can get a bit worn and this can be replaced at a small cost without any effect on the 3D printed layer.
