Personalized Insoles: Innovation for Foot Health with 3D Scan Technology Good foot health is the foundation of a quality daily life. Foot pain, flat feet or other foot abnormalities can affect walking, balance and overall quality of life. Personalized insoles are an effective solution to correct and relieve these symptoms. With today’s technological advancements, we can create insoles that are more precise and meet the needs of each individual than ever before. What are personalized insoles and why are they important? Custom Foot Orthotics are devices designed and manufactured to specifically support the shape of each individual’s foot, taking into account the user’s anatomy, foot problems and daily activities. Unlike ready-made insoles that are often manufactured in standard sizes, which may not be able to directly solve individual problems, personalized insoles play an important role in: Balancing and aligning the feet: They help organize the feet, ankles and legs into proper alignment, reducing unwanted force on joints. Reducing pain: Relieves pain caused by conditions such as flat feet, plantar fasciitis, hammertoes or back pain related to foot problems. Enhance movement efficiency: Helps make walking, running and other activities more efficient and reduces the risk of injury. Distributing pressure: Helps distribute weight and pressure on the soles of the feet evenly, reducing specific weight-bearing points. A New Era in Insole Design: 3D Scanning via Smartphones and Tablets In the past, custom-made insoles required plaster molding of your feet, which could be inconvenient and time-consuming. Today, 3D scanning technology has become a key player in making this process easier and more accurate. Using iOS and Android smartphones and tablets with a dedicated app, you can quickly and accurately scan your feet. The data obtained from the scan is then sent to a specialist to design and produce an insole that is specifically designed for your feet. Advantages of 3D scanning via smartphones/tablets: Convenient and accessible: It can be done anywhere, anytime. There is no need to travel to a clinic to take a foot print. Fast: The scan takes only a few minutes. Accurate: It provides detailed and accurate foot data, allowing for proper insole design. Reduced errors: It reduces the errors that can occur with traditional foot prints. After you have scanned and submitted the data, your insole will be produced within approximately […]

👉Flat Feet: Why Do I Need a Personalized Insole? Pes Planus (flat feet) is a condition in which the inner arch of the foot is flat, causing the entire sole of the foot to contact the ground while standing. This can lead to pain and discomfort in the feet, ankles, knees, or back. Using a personalized insole is therefore very important to relieve symptoms and balance the structure of the foot. 👉Why Custom Insoles? Each person’s foot is unique, including its shape, arch curvature, and weight bearing. Using a commercially available insole may not provide the right support and solution. A custom-cut insole designed by a professional will be precisely adjusted to the individual patient’s foot structure, helping to:✅Arch support: Strengthens and maintains a collapsed arch✅Pressure distribution: Reduces excessive pressure on any one area of the foot✅Ankle alignment: Keeps the ankle in proper alignment, reducing overpronation✅Pain relief: Reduces stress and overwork on the muscles and tendons in the feet and legs 👉Both a podiatrist (foot specialist) can design and customize an insole 🌟Podiatrist: Trained in foot and ankle assessment Have a deep understanding of the biomechanics of the foot and can comprehensively assess the problem 👉Insole design techniques: Podiatrists or prosthetists may use a variety of techniques to design personalized insoles, such as:✅ Inverted Bake Device: A traditional foot impression technique that uses mold modification while the material is still soft to achieve a precise arch support shape✅ Modified Root Device: A concept that focuses on controlling the position of the heel bone (Calcaneus) to be in the right alignment to affect overall foot function✅ Intrinsic and Extrinsic Adjustment: Both internal (Intrinsic) adjustments, such as increasing or decreasing the density of the material in some parts, and external (Extrinsic) adjustments, such as adding side reinforcements
