What it is about
Many complaints start with how your foot meets the ground. Heel pain with the first steps, a burning feeling under the ball of your foot, a big toe that starts to turn: we find out what is behind it. Sometimes an insole is the answer, sometimes a toe orthosis, exercises or different shoes.
- Heel spur and heel pain
- Pain under the forefoot
- Big toe turning inwards
- Knee, hip or back problems caused by how your feet stand
02Foot flatthe foot takes your weight
Six spots, six stories
- 1HeelHeel spur or plantar fasciitis: an overloaded band of tissue under your foot. Pain mainly with the first steps after getting up.
- 2ArchA fallen or high arch spreads your weight differently. You often only notice it higher up, in your knee or back.
- 3ForefootA burning feeling or “a pebble” under the ball of your foot. Often an overloaded metatarsal or a trapped nerve (Morton’s).
- 4Big toeA big toe that turns inwards (hallux valgus) or becomes stiff. An insole and different footwear slow it down.
- 5Small toesHammer toes and corns come from pressure. A custom silicone orthosis takes that pressure away.
- 6Outside edgeRepeatedly turning your ankle, or pain on the outside: we look at stability and give you exercises.
03Midstanceyou stand on one leg
Further up
Your foot is the foundation. If it stands differently, the rest has to compensate.
- Knee
- A foot that rolls inwards twists your knee with it.
- Hip
- A leg length difference of half a centimetre already counts.
- Lower back
- A hard heel strike sends shocks up, step after step.
