– A call, text or email the DAY BEFORE all booked appointments to patients who do not reply to our Standard appointment reminder call, SMS and or email two days before the appointment is due.

– We ask all patients kindly wait outside the clinic until they are invited inside

– Sanitation stations, masks and gloves will continue to be provided to all visiting patients.

We ask that all clients respect the boundaries we have implemented in the interests of every individual in our care and our staff

If it has been more than 3 years since your orthotic devices were maintained or replaced!

In that time even our lower activity clients will have taken over 2 million steps each year! Over the course of orthotic therapy we expect your feet to change, so we need to ensure your orthotic device evolves with your feet.

We use the highest grade of materials available worldwide, giving longevity of orthotic life and lightweight performance; however, your orthoses will still experience the compressible weight of our body and activity over time.

What do we expect your orthotics may need after 3 years of wear and tear?

1. Ideally a “Re-setting” of your existing orthotic therapy to allow continuity, rather than a “re-make”.

2. If it turns out your orthotic devices have worn out, we have all your previous orthotic designs stored. We save time by updating these designs, maximising your performance without having to start from scratch.
