  Interpod preform foot orthotics

Back to: Website Index >> Product Range

Proper alignment of the foot is widely considered as being necessary for normal function during gait. Poor alignment of the foot is associated with symptoms such as metatarsalgia, arch pain, knee pain, shin-splints, tendon pain, back pain other postural related symptoms.

Interpod pre-form foot orthotics have been designed to address these symptoms by supporting the foot and preventing pronation.

The Interpod range consists of soft and flexible Orthoses in seven distinct models with a full range of sizes based on three arch heights.

ORTHOTIC 1
Low function

ORTHOTIC 2
Moderate function

ORTHOTIC 3
High function

Interpod design features:

  • Available in three arch heights - eliminates the need for temporary stick-on's

  • Intrinsic rear foot wedging reduces the need for excessive arch height

  • The plantar fascial groove assists the windlass mechanism and reduces arch irritation

  • Interpod orthoses compress or flex which helps improve patient tolerance

 

Comfort:

  • Interpod orthoses compress or flex which helps improve patient tolerance.

  • Rear-foot wedging reduces the need for excessive arch height.

  • A plantar facial groove on Orthose decreases arch irritation. The groove creates a path for the plantar fascia and the tendon of F.H.L.

 

Fit to shoes:

Different styles of shoe require a specific orthotic shape for optimal comfort and patient compliance. Four proven Podiatric designs have been incorporated in the Interpod range to provide orthotic options for all shoe types (shown above).



Symptom relief:


Clinical experience shows the majority of patients requiring orthoses respond positively to one of three orthotic heights reflected in the Interpod orthotic range; LOW, MODERATE and HIGH. The correct orthotic height is a practical issue of shoe fit and comfort, combined with the necessity for symptom relief.

Interpod recommends the initial use of the MODERATE height orthotic, providing shoe fit permits. If symptoms persist and the moderate height has been “comfortable” then the use of the HIGH arch is indicated. The LOW arch is used if the MODERATE is uncomfortable or when shoe fit is difficult.
