Types of orthopedic insoles by purpose

There are several types of orthopedic insoles depending on the purpose of wearing.

Preventive models

By their structure, they are soft, should provide comfort. They are made from leather or foam. This type of product is intended for people who temporarily or permanently experience stress on their legs:

athletes;
at varicose veins veins;
you can choose orthopedic remedies for flat feet of the initial stage;
lovers of high heels can also choose these orthopedic models.

Comfort models

wide foot;
finger deformity;
flat feet III-IV degree.

Treatment models

Their very name speaks for itself. It is recommended to choose these orthopedic remedies for those who already have changes in the bones of the foot, impaired blood supply to the lower extremities. Their use may result in pain. This is due to the fact that orthopedic medical insoles try to return the physiological position to the deformed foot. Tension of ligaments and muscles is accompanied by pain.

Therapeutic orthopedic products are recommended to choose when the following diseases:

plantar fasciitis (heel spur);
rheumatoid arthritis;
diabetes;
flat feet;
osteoarthritis;
clubfoot, varus deformity or flat-valgus foot in children.

How to choose medical orthopedic insoles for an adult or a child? - as with the choice of any remedy - this should only be done by a doctor, in this case an orthopedist. Medicinal products as a result of constant wear relieve inflammation, eliminate fatigue and pain in the legs. They also prevent diseases of the feet, large joints and spine.

Types of medical orthopedic insoles

According to the functional purpose, medical products are divided into several types:

corrective;
unloading;
vault-supporting;
vault-forming.

The therapeutic effect of each orthopedic remedy follows from the name. The purpose of the corrective model is to correct the position of the foot relative to the musculoskeletal system. Therefore, in their design there are additional details - instep supports, pelots and high sides. Treatment models are designed to relieve pain, increase leg endurance, and correct foot biomechanics.

Vault-supporting orthotics should be chosen to reduce the load on the foot. They relieve pain and increase the endurance of the legs under load.

Arch shaping models should be selected to smoothly transform the arch of the foot. They are used in children's orthopedic products with the existing flat feet.

Unloading insoles should be chosen if you want to redistribute the load from problem areas evenly throughout the foot. This is achieved by special recesses and bulges. They help to avoid contact of the painful area of the sole with the product. Materials of different density and composition relieve the load of the arch of the foot when walking and standing for a long time.

How to choose orthopedic insoles by marking

When buying insoles, you can see letters and numbers on them. Each label is designed to be worn for a specific disease. Some products are used when changing the position of the foot - supination, that is, turning the foot inward, or pronation - turning outward.

Types of orthopedic insoles by design

Therapeutic effect orthopedic insoles largely depend on the material used by manufacturers.

The following orthopedic models are produced:

longitudinal;
transverse;
combined;
half-insoles are produced for lovers of high-heeled shoes;
frame;
children's models.

The use of insoles is more common for people suffering from flat feet. The patient can choose the appropriate model after consulting an orthopedic doctor. With longitudinal flat feet, insoles are chosen in which the liners go along the foot. With transverse flat feet, insoles with a pad are used. Patients with combined flat feet need insoles with a pad and arch support.

How to choose and wear orthopedic insoles

For winter and summer shoes, products of various designs are produced. Insulated models can be chosen with fur. Products for sandals or sandals manufacturers produce thin, barely visible to the eye. They are attached to the shoes with an adhesive backing.

Who needs orthopedic insoles?

Preventive models made of leather, elastic foam or cork will relieve the pain in the legs of lovers of high heels.
For people weighing more than 100 kg, who often have foot deformities, hard insoles made of plastic, metal or graphite are recommended.
Soft models made of a material with a porous structure will help get rid of calluses and corns.
With instability of the ankle joint or often tucked foot, semi-rigid models made of flexible plastic are suitable.
For children, thermoplastic models are ideal, which take the form of a foot under the influence of heat.
With a heel spur, rigid orthopedic types of products are selected.
For diabetics, two-layer products are suitable to prevent the formation of corns.
With flat feet, models are selected for the transverse or longitudinal arch of the foot.
For pain in the legs, soft insoles made of felt or wool should be selected.
People of professions associated with prolonged standing on their feet (hairdressers, sellers) should choose hard frame insoles.
For sports shoes, a product without a frame is selected.

Preventive insoles people can choose for themselves. They can be immediately worn constantly or during exercise. Silicone insoles should not be used for more than 16 hours a day. They are not used for wounds on the foot.

Important! Before inserting orthopedic insoles from shoes, it is necessary to remove the factory pads.

The mode of wearing insoles is determined by the orthopedist. Newly acquired medical insoles are not recommended to be worn all the time, because they can rub. First they are worn for 10-15 minutes, gradually increasing the time. When the foot adapts, you can apply several hours a day.

What to look for when choosing insoles

If you are going to go shopping, you need to take with you the shoes in which the insole will be used. In addition to the profile choice, you need to pay attention to the following details of the product.

It is preferable to choose models from polymeric materials, leather or cork.

How to choose for a heel spur

Insoles for the treatment of plantar fasciitis are used in ordinary shoes. If there is a heel, then it should not be more than 4–5 cm high.

How to choose orthopedic insoles for heel spurs? When buying, you need to focus on the following criteria.

The rigid frame of orthopedic insoles forms an arch support inside to support the longitudinal arch. It is designed to take the load off the plantar fascia and distribute it evenly throughout the foot.
The insole must have a heel cushion. Its function is to relieve the shock load on the heel.
With combined flat feet, the insole should also have a metatarsal pad - a pad under metatarsal bones. It is needed to support the transverse arch.

On the recommendation of a doctor, the model may have special wedges under the heel if there is supination or pronation of the foot. Rigid orthopedic insoles correctly distribute the load on the foot. Thanks to this, the kinetics of the foot improves, pain decreases. During the fitting, you need to pay attention to the fact that the toes of the shoe move freely, and the insole protrudes 1 cm beyond the phalanges.

How to choose with longitudinal flat feet

How to choose orthopedic insoles for longitudinal flat feet? Experts believe that the best material for the manufacture of this type of product is high-temperature plastic. It well compensates for the sagging of the arch of the foot, keeps the heel in the correct position.

The main requirement in the design of the insole with longitudinal flat feet is the presence of an arch support. It evenly distributes the load on the changed surface of the foot, reduces pain when walking, improves biomechanics lower limb. This model reduces pain in the legs when walking or standing for a long time. It also delays the formation of heel spurs and the progression of the disease.

How to choose with transverse flat feet

With transverse deformity, the front of the foot in the toe area suffers. The main symptom of transverse flat feet is pain and fatigue in the foot by the end of the day, cramps in the calf muscles. In advanced cases, there are pains in the knees, hip joints and back. Due to the incorrect distribution of the load, a transversely spread foot is formed. In addition, the thumb moves to the side, and an exophyte is formed in the joint area, called the "bone" by patients.

How to choose orthopedic insoles for transverse flat feet? The product with this pathology must necessarily have a metatarsal pad - pelota. It supports the transverse arch, reduces the load, relieves the pain of the front of the sole. With constant wear, the kinetics of the foot is corrected, pain in the back and joints is eliminated.

How to choose with mixed flat feet

With this type of flat feet, both arches of the foot are flattened. The treatment is aimed at the correct distribution of the load throughout the foot, the correction of kinetics, and the reduction of pain.

How to choose orthopedic insoles for combined flat feet? By design, these products must be rigid. There is an arch support to support the longitudinal arch. The load of the transverse arch helps to reduce the metatarsal pad - pelota. The presence of a heel shock absorber relieves the shock load on the back of the foot. Thus, the insole with three points of support corrects the kinetics of the lower limb and spine, and reduces pain when walking.

Individual orthopedic insoles

This type of product is made by prosthetic factories or workshops. How to choose custom orthopedic insoles?

The following information is used in production:

orthopedic prescription;
plaster cast of the foot;
sole prints;
computer modelling.

The effectiveness of the model is affected by manufacturing technology and material:

Genuine Leather;
fleece;
wool.

According to the technology of some manufacturers, insoles are made in 20 minutes in the following sequence.

Examination of the foot on a plantoscope.
Selection of the workpiece by size from the appropriate material.
Heating the workpiece, after which the person puts his foot on it. After 30 seconds, the material hardens.
Modeling a product that fully corresponds to the sole of a person.
Testing the product with the necessary correction.

Custom made orthopedic insoles anatomical features feet are considered the most effective. Therefore, orthopedists recommend choosing them so that the products are beneficial.

The choice of orthopedic insoles for children

AT childhood with improperly selected shoes or a genetic predisposition, changes in the bone structure may develop:

flat feet - the most common pathology;
clubfoot;
rachiocampsis.

In childhood, when the transverse arch of the foot is still undeveloped, prophylactic insoles with a thickened arch support should be chosen.

Important! Insoles are selected for children according to the existing deformity of the foot or a tendency to it. And only an orthopedic doctor can determine how to choose children's orthopedic insoles.

With a deformed foot, the product is ordered in an orthopedic salon. They are made from plaster casts or by computer modeling. Children with identified flat feet are registered with orthopedists. Such children are assigned to the constant wearing of insoles until the age of 23, until the foot is formed. This takes into account the condition of the spine. When these children become adults, they will not have formed diseases of the musculoskeletal system - arthrosis and osteochondrosis.

As a result, we highlight the main points of the above. Orthopedic insoles are the basis of conservative treatment of foot diseases, and also serve them. Various ready-made models are produced. They differ in design and material of manufacture, depending on the purpose of the destination. Ready-made insoles are purchased after consulting a doctor. Orthopedists recommend choosing more effective individual insoles that take into account the anatomical features of the foot.

“I work as a sales assistant in a fashion boutique. I like my job, but! I spend the whole working day on my feet, and recently, by the middle of the day, terrible fatigue has come over me. My back and neck hurt, my knees trembled, my feet cramped. I became interested when a friend told me about orthopedic insoles. Can they really help? And what is better - to buy ready-made insoles or to make them to order? Svetlana B.

The legs are not just a part of the body needed for walking and standing. Often we do not pay due attention to them, but the state of the whole organism largely depends on their health.

How? Doctors say that sore legs can cause many diseases of the spine. Problems with them have a pernicious effect on cardiovascular system and the quality of life in general. Agree, few people can smile happily when their legs cramp.

There are as many as 56 joints in two feet - this is a quarter of all bones human body. Let's not forget about the numerous ligaments and muscles. And this whole complex system requires careful care and attention.

Individual orthopedic insoles (orthoses) are a seemingly simple solution that will restore youth to your feet and lightness to your gait.

What are orthopedic insoles?

Orthopedist Charles Baycroft is said to have walked barefoot on the beach and pondered the treatment of his limbs and spine. Suddenly, the doctor glanced at his footprints, and a brilliant thought came to him: foot diseases arise from the fact that we have been walking on even surfaces for many decades (or even centuries). But the human foot is not intended for this, and therefore deformation occurs.

So in the 80s of the last century, orthopedic insoles were developed to bring walking along city streets closer to "natural" conditions.

The main feature of today's orthoses is that they are made from modern materials that can retain their shape for many years, keep the wearer's foot in the correct, healthy position and properly distribute the load.

You can buy ready-made insoles, but it is better to order their production. In this case, each pair of insoles is created for a specific person, specifically for his foot. You can call these orthoses works of medical art, because they are accurate casts of the foot and are truly unique.

Features of custom-made orthopedic insoles:

They are made individually, taking into account the structural features of the foot, its deformations and pathologies (if any).
Modern thin orthoses can be worn with any footwear, from sneakers and skates to stilettos. You can make "universal" insoles, or you can take into account the features of shoes when making them.
When walking, such insoles absorb the shock load on the joints, which reduces the feeling of fatigue and relieves pain. The progress of various deformities, such as flat feet, is delayed.
The specialist makes the insole in such a way as to minimize pressure on problem areas of the foot (for example, with a heel spur).

Pathologies and diseases

There is a list of pathologies of the musculoskeletal system, in which the doctor will definitely advise you to order orthoses. These include:

flat feet;
calluses and corns;
heel spur;
gout;
various deformities of the foot;
joint diseases;
different length legs (regardless of the cause of the pathology);
varicose veins;
diseases of the musculoskeletal system caused by injuries.

These are cases in which insoles are indispensable. However, it will be useful for people with healthy feet to use orthopedic insoles in everyday life as a preventive measure.

At-risk groups

Particularly attentive to their feet should be people who:

experience frequent pain in the legs and spine;
get tired quickly while walking;
feel that the legs are swollen or numb;
suffer from excess weight (which puts additional stress on the legs);
actively go in for sports (insoles in such cases are placed in sneakers, skates and other sports shoes);
work in a standing position, spend a lot of time on their feet (sellers, couriers, etc.).

In addition, experts advise using orthopedic insoles for pregnant women, who, thanks to this tool, will be able to avoid a lot of inconvenience, reduce the load on the legs, maintain posture and proper blood circulation.

How are orthoses made?

First of all, you should remember that high-quality custom-made orthopedic insoles that will be durable and really benefit your feet can only be made by a competent specialist.

Training

Orthopedists of the SMC Best Clinic will first conduct full examination your legs. They will evaluate the mechanics of the foot, listen to your complaints and draw conclusions based on them, diagnose existing pathologies (flat feet, heel spurs, etc.), their type and severity.

For the greatest accuracy, computer diagnostics are carried out, which will give the doctor the maximum idea of how your foot moves and what needs to be corrected.

Choice of insoles

You can choose the type of orthosis that suits you. Orthopedic insoles have a different thickness, elasticity and shape - depending on the purpose of their use. So, sports orthoses are more rigid and elastic, they fix the foot well and control its movements. And the insoles, designed for women's dress shoes, are less dense, they are quite narrow (which allows them to fit in a “boat” or “ballet flat”) and help beautiful ladies feel comfortable for a long time even on the highest heels.

The doctor will answer all your questions regarding the types of orthoses and recommend the ones that are right for you. If you wish, you can order several pairs of insoles at once - for example, for sports, for daily use and for shoes with narrow toes.

Manufacturing

Then the orthopedist proceeds to the manufacture of insoles. This process resembles the work of a sculptor: a blank made of a special unique material is heated with a hair dryer, and the doctor forms an insole according to the patient's foot. The data obtained during the diagnostics are taken into account, and individual characteristics leg structures. After a few minutes, the insole is ready and you can start using it!

A month later, it is necessary to visit a specialist again, who will evaluate the changes that have occurred in the foot and, if necessary, correct the shape of the insoles.

Orthopedic insoles: the key to a flying gait

The use of orthoses will allow you to forget what pain in the legs is, constant fatigue and loss of balance. You can once again go for long walks, jogging and other sports, visit museums and concerts without the desire to sit down and relax.

But most importantly, orthopedic insoles will save you from the risk of developing the most various diseases: blood vessels and spine will remain healthy for a long time.

And one more important factor: ordering orthopedic insoles is not too expensive. Spending a fairly moderate amount, you will give your legs strength and youth for many years. At the same time, the treatment of diseases that can develop due to foot pathologies will hit both your wallet and your body much more painfully.

Contact the orthopedists of Best Clinic in Moscow, and we will make orthoses from the best materials on the same day. Take care of your feet!
