Conditions Where Orthotics May Help Panania Patients
Many of the patients we see from Panania are children and parents, so we have a strong focus on growing feet, children’s heel pain and walking patterns. Orthotic therapy is often part of management for Flat Feet in Children, Sever’s Disease (Kids Heel Pain), In-Toeing & Out-Toeing, alongside footwear advice, strengthening and stretching.
Flat Feet in Children
When flat feet cause pain, fatigue or tripping, paediatric orthoses may be considered to support comfort during activity.

Foot orthoses are shoe inserts designed to change how load is shared through the foot and lower limb. They may reduce strain on painful tissues, support foot posture and improve comfort during walking, work and sport.
- Assessment – history, foot posture, joint range, strength and a gait assessment.
- Discussion – whether orthoses are likely to help, and whether prefabricated or custom devices suit your needs.
- Fitting – orthoses are fitted to your everyday, work or sports footwear.
- Review – comfort and symptoms are reviewed, with adjustments where needed. Children’s orthoses are reviewed as feet grow.
