Peak Orthotics

Peak Orthotics (special insoles) by The Cordwainer

 

Besides orthopaedic footwear, we manufacture Orthotics (special insoles) that can have a dramatic effect on your comfort and mobility yet be able to wear your everyday shoes.

 

The Orthotics we make are unique, they are individually assessed, casted and manufactured then fitted into the shoe to work correctly.

 

Common uses for Orthotics.

  • Chronic foot conditions.
  • Sports injuries.
  • Accident trauma.
  • Long term disabilities

….. or just plain comfort.

 

And what can we offer you ?

  • A full assessment of your needs.
  • We will work with your health professional or clinic.
  • A same-day service (conditions apply).
  • Standard service of 24 hours.
  • I will guarantee the lowest price for the specialist service provided.

 

The orthotics we make are made of a variety of materials all designed to give both support and comfort, whilst at the same time remain lightweight and functional. We do not make rigid insoles, we believe they can cause more problems than they solve, it is important that the foot is allowed to function as normally as possible with the insole complimenting that function.

Our experience making orthopaedic footwear means we fully understand the important role an orthotic insole plays in improving your mobility and well-being. 

This service is only available from our workshop, or by arrangement with your healthcare provider or clinic. Our Nationwide Visiting Service is not available for supplying orthotics.

 

Orthotics, what do they do ?

An 'orthotic' is a functional support designed to restore the natural function of the foot, ankle and leg. Many common complaints such as lower back pain, knee pain and heel/foot pain are caused by poor foot function.

 

Orthotic Insoles help re-align the foot and ankle bones to their neutral position, thereby restoring natural foot function. In turn this helps alleviate problems in other parts of the body. The end result, you feel the difference with every step you take as the orthotics give more even weight distribution, take pressure of sore spots and provide real shock absorption and comfort.

 

 

 

 
 

Focusing on the Problem

It is clear to see this foot will not fit into a standard shoe, an orthotic insole built within a custom made boot was the answer.

 

We specialise in this kind of work. Philip is one of the few skilled technicians in the United Kingdom able to solve these kind of problems. He has been making bespoke orthopaedic footwear for 40 years and this experience is easily translated into the manufacture and supply of footwear and orthotics for all conditions.

The orthotics are manufactured to he highest standards using a variety of materials designed to deliver performance and comfort.

 

Your first appointment might just be the start of a real change in your mobility and wellbeing. We will work with you to find the best orthotic solution to your specific problem, nothing 'off the self' or 'quick fix' is good enough. We discuss your needs fully so that the orthotics being supplied will match the customers lifestyle profile and then set about a course of action that is designed to involve you from start to finish.

 

 

PLEASE NOTE
 

Our footwear and orthotics are made using the highest quality materials and processes that continue to be used in traditionally made bespoke footwear. All the materials we use comply to European Standard EN 344-1.
 
The Cordwainer is registered with the Medical Devices Agency. All our footwear and orthotics comply with Medical Device Directive EN93/42/EEC which states that custom made devices are subject to the classification rules and should not be CE marked.
 
The Cordwainer is one of the most experienced and highly skilled shoemakers in the United Kingdom, however this does not allow us to prescribe an appliance or footwear as shoemakers cannot register with the Health Professionals Council.
