At Mercury Biomechanics a range of orthoses (insoles) is available to suit all ages, activities, foot types, budgets and needs. The common factor for all insoles supplied is that they are tailored to your specific problems and needs
Custom/semi-custom functional foot orthoses
It may be possible to give you a semi custom insole, in which your prescription is built into a standard 'shell'. But the best results will be obtained with a fully custom insole which is a perfect fit to your foot. At Mercury Biomechanics, such insoles are designed and made using computer aided technology. Your foot will first be scanned and a digital image produced on a computer. Your insole is then designed around that image, using computer aided design (CAD) technology. The insole design with all its inbuilt specifications is the sent electronically to a computer aided manufacturing (CAM) facility, where it is precisely milled, again by a computer.
Insoles for children
Providing insoles for children can seem an expensive business for parents if they grow out of them very quickly. To help with this problem we offer two solutions:
More than one pair of insoles
Insoles should be easily transferable between many types of shoe. But, if you prefer the convenience of leaving the insoles in your shoes, you can buy a second or third pair at a discount.
