Orthotics may feel strange or different at first but they should not be uncomfortable. During your second visit when you receive your orthoses we will make sure that they fit and feel good. You will then take them home and try them. You may need to build up a tolerance to them at first, if there is any increase in symptoms or new symptoms take the orthotics out and have a break from them. If you are not getting use to them or you experience any blistering or redness you should book with your pedorthist to have them adjusted. Each individual will respond to orthoses differently and it is not uncommon to have the orthoses tweaked as your body gets use to them.
