Custom Orthotics Designed for Shin Splints:
- Forefoot padding - to absorb the shock at the forefoot and indirectly prevent transferred impact at the shins.
- Customized arch support - dissipates pressure throughout the foot and up the leg.
- Full length posting - may be necessary if you are walking in an abducted 'duck' stance position or coming off the inside of the greater toe, causing torsion affects up the leg.
- Semi-flexible shell - to maintain structure support while providing cushioning and comfort throughout the leg.
- Neutral casting - to align your feet and lower limbs in order to place them in the most optimal position for gait.
