4. Use
Orthosis shoes must always be used in pairs.
4.1 Insoles
To compensate a height difference between a foot
without orthosis and a foot with orthosis, you need to
remove both insoles from the shoe in which you are
wearing your orthosis. If the height still differs, ask your
supplier to produce a height compensation for you.
4.2 Putting On the Orthosis Shoe
Always put on and take off the orthosis shoe while you
are seated. Remember to wear socks in your orthosis
shoe.
1
Open the hook and loop fastener and the shoe laces
of the orthosis shoe.
2
Place the orthosis’ foot piece in the shoe (fig. 3).
3
Partially lace the orthosis shoe.
4
Step into the foot piece in the orthosis shoe by
using the heel strap (fig. 4).
5
Completely lace the orthosis shoe, then tighten the
shoe laces.
6
Close the hook and loop fastener (fig. 5).
The foot should sit firmly in the shoe. However, exces-
sive pressure should be avoided.
