How Orthopedic Footwear can Help Manage Arthritis Pain?
We offer footwear that is eligible for coverage under private insurance plans as orthopedic footwear.
6 million Canadians have arthritis... that's ONE in FIVE!!
Arthritis is Canada's most common chronic disease, affecting 20% of those aged 15+. There are over 100 types, including inflammatory forms (like rheumatoid arthritis, childhood arthritis, and gout) and the most common, osteoarthritis. It causes painful inflammation and stiffness in joints, especially in the feet and ankles. Without treatment, it can lead to permanent joint damage.
Patients need to always wear orthopedic shoes, even indoors, for protection.
