The multiple causes of flat feet

There are many causes of flatfoot including excessive elasticity of the ligaments or tension in the calf. A biomechanical imbalance between the forefoot and rearfoot can also be the cause of this physical condition.



Newborns are the most prone to this type of case. Through biomechanical analyzes, I am able to assess whether the tendons, ligaments and small bones under the foot are properly supporting the patient's body weight.

Some consequences of flat feet

Flat feet can cause pain in the feet and ankle. Over time, they can affect the knees, hips and back. From there, they can limit the ability to walk, run or play sports. In this case, it is necessary to correct the flat feet, in particular by wearing plantar orthotics.

I can prescribe the right type of orthosis for you, depending on the severity of the flat feet.
