- Biomechanical issues
- Bunions (Hallux-Abducto-Valgus)
- Hammer Toes
- Footwear with inappropriate heel height (high heels) • Jumping sports and forefoot striking when running
- Irregular metatarsal length

What our patients say
Back again for a review 4 years later. Their service is exceptional, so friendly and professional. I've been totally pain free with their orthotics and so easy to get another pair made up as my old ones are getting worn again. They fit perfectly. I'll be a customer for years to come. Thank you Jack
