- Pediatric orthotics can range from shoe inserts to knee-high braces and be used to assist children with flat feet, toe walking, weakness, poor balance, frequent tripping, leg length discrepancies, and other conditions. The orthotics are made to improve a child’s walking pattern and aid in physical development, making it as comfortable for them as possible.
- Some other conditions that might require a child to receive orthotic treatment include:
- Foot pronation
- Foot supination
- Leg and foot spasticity
- Hip dysplasia
- Foot or ankle mal-alignment
- Severe metatarsus adductus
- Tibial torsion
