Orthopaedic intervention at an early stage can help to prevent the onset of common foot problems like flat feet, toe walking, poor balance, leg length discrepancies, etc. Heel to Toe Footwear brings an extensive collection of comfort children shoes to alleviate the pain and discomfort that children feel due to various ailments.
Our range of children’s comfortable shoes provides the necessary arch and ankle support required for the child’s feet to move and function naturally. The primary goal of orthotic shoes in children is to provide stability while promoting functional ability.
Benefits of orthopaedic shoes in children
The medial foot column (arch) in children does not develop until about the age of 8 years. So, the forces placed on the feet during the early development years significantly impacts the foot structure later in life. If the child is in discomfort for reasons such as incorrectly fitting or poorly designed shoes, they will start compensating in the way they stand or walk, which can lead to foot abnormalities later in life.
Since comfort children shoes promote functional ability, they can be of significant help in facilitating motor milestones like walking, running, hopping, and other gross motor activities. In addition, they are available in various designs and colours, so your children have something to pair for every occasion.
As it is likely you will have consulted a paediatrician, physical therapist, or podiatrist to determine if your child will benefit from orthotic intervention, we are happy to work closely withnthem in the provision of footwear..
