Tripping - Intoeing

Research has shown that the biggest reason children are treated for intoeing is because parents are concerned about the way their children walk or run. Sometimes intoeing is a developmental phase that children will grow out of. Tripping during intoeing usually lasts for 1-2 years as children learn how to compensate for the problem. To treat or not to treat? If you are concerned about your child intoeing, it is a good idea to have a biomechanics appointment with us.

How can Health Steps Podiatry help you?
  1. We can observe the way your child runs or walks
  2. We can analyse the shoes they wear and how they wear them out.
  3. We can advise you on how to treat the problem and whether they need gait plates, orthotics or a change of foot wear.
  4. Sometimes it is just a phase they will grow out of and we will tell you this. We only treat if necessary.
