The Consultation

At Active Feet, we are passionate about providing our patients with the best service and custom-made orthotics in Edinburgh. We specialise in the implementation of bespoke orthotic insoles that are carefully manufactured with exceptional precision and has left every one of our patients completely satisfied. Following an initial consultation with one of our expert podiatrists, we will work with you to establish the best course of action to suit your personal needs and put you on the most effective road to recovery. Our Edinburgh clinic offers a same day orthotics service which enables us to get our patients up and running again as soon as possible.

Orthotic Insoles

Orthotic inserts can be used to treat a large range of issues resulting in foot pain or heel pain, including flat feet, high arches, Achilles related problems, and arthritis. The use of prescribed insoles can cause changes in load pressure and foot function offering relief to the painful symptoms caused by abnormalities.

The first step to receiving foot orthotics in Edinburgh is to have an pain and injury assessment  with us. During this first meeting, we will perform a number of testing techniques on your feet and ankles which helps to assess how your foot function works while walking or running. 

The device itself is extremely accurate and creates a computerised model which enables us to design orthotic insoles to combat any issues that we have highlighted. Following this, the scan is sent across to our team in Belgium where your inserts will be custom-made and returned within 10 working days. We are the first clinic in Scotland to offer Phits 3D printed orthotics which has helped us become the leading provider of orthotics in Edinburgh due to the maximum efficiency, stability, and durability this type of insert presents.

Our Brands

We work with a number of orthotic manufacturers including Phits, the Worlds first high-tech 3D printed orthosis, based on your personal dynamic gait analysis. These orthtoics are taken from a dynamic scan that we take in the clinic and send direct to the printer in Belgium who will custom make your orthosis and return to us within 10 working days. Phits orthotics provide optimal efficiency, superior stability and extreme durability

For a routine podiatry appointment the only requirement is that nail varnish is removed prior.  We’d also advise that you attend in the shoes that you wear most often, so we can assess if they may be contributing to any specific foot problem.

For a biomechanics appointment we ask that you come in (or change into) shorts so that we can assess your lower limbs properly and –

–  Your favourite/everyday shoes

–  Your running/sports shoes

–  Any previous/old orthoses
