Children & Orthotic Solutions
Pain in a child’s foot is never normal. Any pain that lasts more than a few days, or that is severe enough to limit the child’s walking, should be evaluated immediately. Paying special attention to the concerns that you or your child has with their feet or legs is vital to their overall health, activity, and behaviour.
The Chiropodist will perform a thorough examination of your children’s feet and will provide you with advice regarding the proper care and treatment for your child by preventing and correcting problems that could potentially be bothersome and painful into adulthood.

Our Growth Program
Kids are constantly growing, and so are their feet. At Azilda Family Foot Care, we understand that children often outgrow their orthotics faster than their insurance coverage renews. When a child’s foot grows more than two shoe sizes, their custom orthotics may no longer fit properly. This can become costly, which is why we offer a special program for children up to 16 years old. After the initial purchase, we offer discounted prices on the second and third pairs of orthotics to help make them more affordable as your child grows.
