While many children naturally develop arches as they grow, this isn't true for everyone. The good news is that not all flat feet require treatment.

The most important question isn't whether your child has flat feet—it's whether those flat feet are causing pain, affecting their movement, or limiting their ability to enjoy everyday activities.

At our practice, we assess each child individually and recommend treatment only when it is clinically appropriate. This may include custom foot orthoses, footwear advice, exercises, or simply monitoring their development over time.

Every child deserves to move comfortably and confidently, and we're here to support healthy development every step of the way.

Have questions about your child's foot development? We'd be happy to help. Contact us on 011 803 6649.

Some journeys are measured not in kilometres, but in courage.

Today we're celebrating one patient's incredible milestone as he takes his very first steps with his new prosthetic leg.

His journey to amputation was long, traumatic, and filled with challenges. In addition to losing his leg, he also lost the use of his right arm, making his rehabilitation even more complex. Yet despite everything he has endured, he continues to show remarkable determination and resilience.

His new prosthesis features the Navii Microprocessor Knee from Össur. This advanced prosthetic knee uses intelligent sensor technology to continuously adapt to the user's walking pattern, helping to provide greater stability, smoother movement, and increased confidence with every step. For someone facing the added challenge of only having the use of one arm for balance and mobility, this technology plays an even more important role in supporting safe, functional movement.

This moment is about so much more than walking. It represents months of healing, perseverance, rehabilitation, and the decision to keep moving forward despite unimaginable obstacles.

It is a privilege to walk alongside our patients through these life-changing moments. Watching someone regain their independence after everything they have been through is why we do what we do.

The Nexgear Tango Double Action Ankle Joint from ottobock_sa is an advanced orthotic solution designed to improve walking for people with muscle weakness, paralysis, or neurological conditions affecting the lower limb.

Unlike traditional ankle joints, the Nexgear Tango can be customised throughout rehabilitation using interchangeable function modules. This allows us to adjust the level of movement and support as a person's strength, mobility, and gait improves.

Contact us on 011 803 6649 to see in these joints could work for you.

Cranial helmets are designed to be safely worn during both awake time and sleep, including naps and nighttime rest. Importantly, they do not change or replace safe sleep guidelines — babies should always continue to sleep on their back, on a firm and flat surface.

These helmets are lightweight, custom-made, and designed to fit within a baby’s normal daily routine. When properly fitted and monitored, they do not interfere with breathing, safe sleep positioning, or comfort during rest.

Most babies adapt quickly, and helmet therapy simply becomes part of their 23-hour daily wear schedule, supporting head shape correction while allowing safe sleep practices to remain unchanged.

Not all breast forms are the same — and choosing the right type depends on each individual’s surgery, needs, and comfort.

A full breast form is typically used after a full mastectomy to restore shape, balance, and symmetry. These forms replace the entire breast volume and can help clothing fit more comfortably and confidently.

A partial breast form (or shaper) is often used after a lumpectomy, reconstruction, or partial breast surgery where some natural breast tissue remains. It helps fill uneven areas and improve symmetry in bras or clothing.

Every patient’s journey is unique, which is why fittings are tailored to find the most comfortable and natural option for each individual.

Sometimes the best solutions are built in parts.

This modular design combines an AFO and backslab component to create a KAFO when used together — offering adaptable support based on the patient’s needs.

By combining the two components, the device provides increased stability, alignment, and functional support for rehabilitation and mobility. Modular orthotic designs can offer flexibility while still delivering the structure and control required for more complex conditions.

Thoughtfully designed support, tailored to the individual.

With Nelson Mandela day approaching, we remember the legacy of Madiba — a leader who reminded us that true significance comes from the difference we make in the lives of others. His compassion, resilience, and commitment to serving people continue to inspire generations around the world. As a practice, this message resonates deeply with us. Every brace fitted, every prosthesis created, every patient supported is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference in someone’s life.

This Nelson Mandela Day, may we all be reminded that even the smallest acts of care, kindness, and service can leave a lasting impact.

One of the most common misconceptions in orthotics and prosthetics is that off-the-shelf and custom-made devices are the same — but they are designed for very different purposes.

While off-the-shelf devices can be helpful for simple or short-term needs, they are built in standard sizes and may not always address individual anatomical differences or specific functional goals.

Custom-made orthotic and prosthetic devices are designed around the individual — considering their unique body structure, condition, and lifestyle needs. This allows for a more precise fit, improved comfort, and better overall function.

This custom prosthetic limb represents far more than just a device. Following a life-changing accident, it marks the beginning of a new chapter — one filled with renewed independence and possibility.

Every prosthesis is carefully crafted to support not only mobility and comfort, but also confidence and quality of life. We are honoured to be part of each patient’s rehabilitation journey and the milestones that come with it.
