Orthopaedic shoes : types and benefits - PiedRéseau Mascouche
PiedRéseau Mascouche offers a specialized service in orthopaedic shoes, designed to address various foot and leg conditions. These shoes are prescribed by our podiatrists to treat plantar deformities and mechanical abnormalities, which, if left unaddressed, can lead to chronic pain and musculoskeletal issues. Our clinic provides a comprehensive assessment to determine the necessity of orthopaedic footwear tailored to each patient’s needs.
We offer a variety of orthopaedic shoe types, including street shoes suitable for office environments, children’s shoes for early correction of deformities, work shoes for active individuals, and custom-made options for severe conditions. Prefabricated orthopaedic shoes are also available for less severe foot issues. Each type is designed to enhance comfort and support while accommodating the unique requirements of our patients.
Orthopaedic shoes can effectively treat a range of conditions, providing both active and passive support. They help correct issues like flat feet, plantar fasciitis, and bunions, while also alleviating discomfort in the lower back and joints. Our podiatrists ensure that these shoes are part of a holistic treatment plan, which may include additional therapies as needed.
The team at PiedRéseau Mascouche includes Dr. Tania André, Dr. Kimberly Fortin, Dr. Rachel Sapin, and Dr. Diana Zhou, all of whom are qualified podiatrists. They collaborate to provide personalized care and ensure that each patient receives the appropriate orthopaedic footwear for their specific condition.
