Guest guest Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 Amelia, Yes, the custom inserts (orthotics like I wear in my shoes) will be made to comform to her feet, and give her feet support. They won't cause atrophy, but because her feet roll, the inserts would be made to correct that, giving her a better gait in walking. The orthotics also may help with the weakness in her leg depending on where that weakness is coming from. Orthotic inserts may also help her balance, I know mine do Make sure you get good shoes to go with the orthotic inserts. Your orthotist can recommend shoes, or try the kid's line of New Balance. ~ Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
