Shoe Modification

The goal of shoe modifications is to correct foot imbalance during weight-bearing activities. In the flexible sensate foot, the corrections will be made to achieve proper weight distribution. The rigid, and/or abnormally structured foot, may not have sensation and is at high painful ambulation. Accommodation requires that the ground is brought up to the plantar surface of the foot with modifications and insoles.
