Shoe Wear Evaluation Hadley, MA

Shoe Wear Evaluation

Footwear characteristics have been developed and modified to provide protection from the environment, conform with fashion, assist function, accommodate foot deformities, and treat musculoskeletal injury. Various footwear characteristics have been linked to falls in older people and in children, and the development of multiple conditions including osteoarthritis of the foot and knee, low back pain, foot ulceration and amputation, and foot deformities such as hallux valgus and hammer toe.

Due to the relationship between footwear and pathology, health professionals have a responsibility to consider footwear characteristics in the etiology and treatment of various patient presentations. Many issues related to the foot, lower limb, and low back conditions can often be addressed by changing or modifying footwear, with or without the use of foot orthoses.
