Foot Biometry Assessment
Measurement-led review of foot dimensions and fit considerations to support footwear and insole planning.
Poorly fitting shoes can cause rubbing, pressure and skin injury, particularly when sensation is reduced or foot shape has changed.
Treatment overview
Care is shaped around the person, the diagnosis and the goal.
