What Is Orthotics Physiotherapy? Orthotics physiotherapy combines traditional physiotherapy techniques with custom-made orthotic devices designed to support and correct biomechanical issues in the body. These devices—often shoe inserts—play a crucial role in aligning the foot and ankle, which in turn influences posture, balance, and movement patterns throughout the body. At Hillcrestphysio, we tailor orthotic interventions to match each patient’s unique physical structure and medical history, ensuring effective and lasting outcomes. Benefits of Orthotics in Physiotherapy Incorporating orthotics into physiotherapy treatment offers a range of benefits for patients experiencing chronic pain or injuries. At Hillcrestphysio, our patients enjoy: • Improved posture and alignment • Reduced pain in feet, knees, hips, and lower back • Enhanced athletic performance and injury prevention • Faster rehabilitation after injury or surgery • Better balance and gait mechanics Orthotics are particularly effective in addressing conditions that stem from or are exacerbated by improper foot function.
