Foot Support and Orthotics
Who can be helped by Orthotics?
Orthotics benefit people with poorly supported feet during movement such as walking or running. An inability to keep the foot in a neutral position can imbalance other areas (ankle, knee, hip and spine etc). For example, the inside arch of the foot flattening during running (over or uncontrolled pronation) turns the ankle, knee and hip inwards and rolls the pelvis forward. This can strain parts of the body and cause injury.
Will the Orthotic get rid of my injury?
Orthotics simply allow the muscles, tendons and bones of the body to sit in their most supported position and therefore function at their best. Sometimes however, the joints themselves might not be working correctly. If this is the case, treatment is often needed to get everything moving alongside the Orthotic support. Injuries always need both good support AND good movement!
How can I get the right Orthotic for me?
Here at the Longlevens Chiropractic & Sports Injury Clinic we offer a custom orthotic fitting service that includes analysing your walking or running pattern (gait analysis) on a treadmill using a specialist computer package. This gives instant feedback about where your problems lie and helps to identify the best type of orthotic to support your feet.
People of all ages and all activities can be helped. Call us on 01452 309372 to book in for a foot consultation to see our Foot and Orthotic Specialist, Simon Rose. He will assess the problem, analyse how your feet move, and be able to recommend the best course of action to get you moving!

Longlevens Chiropractors are faultless. The service is great, very timely, very precise and Danny helped me get back on my feet quickly after the birth of my baby. The 4... read more star rating isn't particularly based on their service - their service is 5 star all day long - I only rated 4 star because as it is a private service, it is expensive and as a part time mum it isn't something I can easily afford. This isn't really a criticism, it's just an unfortunate circumstance to which if I could afford it, I would be going all the time. Next to that and I think this is based on the age of the building, there isn't much in the way of pram accessibility. As much as I could I would try and get little miss looked after by grandparents for an hour or so whilst I attended a session, however that wasn't always the case and had to bring her along with. Granted she was as good as gold when I was having a session but I think my anxiety would have been settle just a touch more should I have been able to keep her asleep in her pram. I do know there was a room downstairs and yes you can take a pram should your session be in the room downstairs however other than that, it's a wee bit sticky. If I could offer 4.5 stars I would! And again, this isn't really a criticism, it's more personal circumstance but I'm just hoping I can express my experiences to other mums who may be in a similar situation.
Great service and a lovely friendly team and would always highly recommend

I had a neck injury which causing me some discomfort. Went in to see Danny for 4 treatments and had big improvements since. Will recommend them to anyone.
GY Glos
Excellent. I cannot praise highly enough. I visited the clinic and for an appointment with Danny for a sore lower back and for a neck issue.
The lower back pain I’d... read more been experiencing for 6 months or so, and Danny gave me treatment at the clinic and also some exercises to do at home. I normally wake with pain in the lower back and the first day after treatment, the pain, although not 100% gone (maybe 90% gone) I could move freely upon waking.
My neck issue also seems a lot better than it was and the techniques to sort this problem seem to be working as well.
Many thanks to all at the clinic and special thanks to Danny.

Professional service, easy to find and has its own parking. I went with neck pain and it was immediately reduced after just one session (thanks Wiebke!). When I stupidly left... read more my car lights on in the car park and went out to a flat battery the boss kindly jump started me. Nice bunch of people and as I say the treatment worked for me and I will continue less frequent visits to keep it from reoccurring. 5***** all round.
Steve Powell
Came here after years of back and forth to the GP and a hip operation. Just over a month ago I was taken to hospital with my disc that has... read more slipped which was the final straw with my back pains.
I decided to get some more help rather than physio as it never worked and in fact made the pain worse.
I currently see Mr Danny Adams who has been wonderful. Everything I say which can come across as silly but he understands and takes it on board. Being a health care professional myself I understand a lot but he breaks down everything to make sure you properly understand and taken it on board which Orthopaedic consultants, GPS and majority of consultants did not do and brushed my pains and problems under the carpet. I’m now getting better, obviously with a slipped disc I have good days and bad days but with Danny’s help it’s a lot more bareable. I can now do light exercise which is something I haven’t been able to do in 6 years. I honestly could not thank Danny enough for his care. The practice as a whole is genuinely lovely and helpful, never had any problems with rescheduling appointments or getting an appointment.
I also really like that every few weeks they email you regarding how you’re getting on and how the pain is.
