simple solutions and endless possibilities
Slimflex Foot Orthotics are designed to offer versatile, effective solutions for various foot conditions. These devices are a popular choice among clinicians due to their ability to provide support, stability and pain relief for conditions such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis and issues related to pronation and oversupination.
Slimflex help people to maintain mobility and keep people moving.
All Slimflex products, including branded met pads and heel lifts are prescribed by the NHS. Under current NHS services restrictions, replacement orthotics are limited to between 2-4 pairs per year depending on your trust.
This in many cases is adequate, but sometimes patients may need replacements or additional items for additional shoes.
We accept orders for Slimflex from patients and end users to help with this burden on our NHS.
Clinically proven, Slimflex are prescribed everyday in the NHS and have several research articles backing their use. These uniquely designed and ergonomically advanced high arch insoles aim to provide both stability and flexibility.
Designed for flat feet, the high arch support bridges the gap between your shoe and the arch of your foot. Contoured Âľ design allows the insole to easily fit into narrower style shoes without compromising the efficiency of the orthotic.
The Full length versions provide full foot control and cushioning for a painful forefoot or foot with bunions or RA.
The Slimflex range is suitable for a wide range of foot conditions and can be used in various types of footwear. This makes them an ideal choice for both everyday use and specific therapeutic needs.

Slimflex orthotics have become a widely adopted solution within NHS podiatry services due to their balance of clinical effectiveness, practicality and cost-efficiency.
NHS clinicians often work in high-volume clinics where treatment pathways need to deliver reliable outcomes while remaining scalable across large patient populations. Slimflex supports this model by offering a simple yet highly adaptable orthotic platform.
The moulded EVA structure provides a neutral orthotic base that can be easily modified by clinicians. Additions such as wedges, pads and other orthotic components allow practitioners to tailor the insole to individual patient needs during the appointment.
Chairside modification is particularly valuable in NHS clinics, where appointment times are often limited. Clinicians can assess the patient, apply modifications and provide the orthotic solution within the same consultation. This reduces delays, avoids multiple follow-up visits and helps patients begin treatment immediately.
Private podiatrists and foot health practitioners often prioritise treatments that deliver fast results, flexibility in clinic and strong patient satisfaction. Slimflex orthotic insoles support all three, making them a popular choice in private practice environments.
Unlike fully custom orthotics that may require casting, laboratory production and longer turnaround times, Slimflex devices can be dispensed and modified immediately. This allows clinicians to provide patients with a functional orthotic solution during their appointment, improving both convenience and perceived value.
For private practices, chairside modification is a key advantage. Clinicians can adjust the orthotic using wedges, pads and other Quick Stick components to fine-tune biomechanical control. If a patient returns with feedback about comfort or performance, the orthotic can be easily modified again without needing to start the process from scratch.
Another reason Slimflex is widely used in private practice is its versatility across different patient types. Whether treating athletes, active adults or individuals experiencing work-related foot pain, practitioners can adapt Slimflex to match the patient’s footwear and activity level. This flexibility allows clinicians to treat a wide variety of conditions using a single orthotic system.
Many patients benefit significantly from having more than one pair of insoles, particularly when they regularly wear different types of footwear. Through Algeos.com, patients can easily obtain additional pairs of Slimflex insoles based on the specifications recommended by their clinician.
