Balance & Instability

Unfortunately as we get older our balance and stability decreases; and it only takes one misplaced foot or one crack in the footpath to cause a fall and injury.

It may sound obvious but your feet and your shoes are your connection between yourself and the ground.  Any faults in either of these can increase the risk of a fall.  Orthotics are often used to aid stability.  Your podiatrist can ensure you have the right combination of footwear and orthotics (if required) to help keep the body where it is meant to be, upright.
