What Are Flat Feet?

FLAT FEET is the broad term used to describe a low arch profile. A Flat Foot appearance presents as either a flexible or rigid form. When Flat Feet are flexible your child’s arch will flatten out when weight bearing and lower to the floor. Remarkably, the arch will appear to have a normal contour in non-weight bearing. FLEXIBLE FLAT FEET respond well to strengthening programmes.

 A RIGID FLAT FOOT will remain consistently flat looking with or without load.

The "TIP TOE" TEST is used to see if an arc in the arch area forms as a child with flat feet rises to their toes. If you can see an arch then your child has a flexible flat foot. If the foot remains flat without an arch this is a rigid flat foot. Rigid flat feet should always seek consultation with a Podiatrist  as there may be boney fusions and its important to determine cause.

Should Kids with Flexible Flat Feet wear orthotic insoles?

As Parents, we all want our kids to have strong healthy feet so they can run around and enjoy their childhood without pain.

Flexible flat feet are most commonly due to:
  • HYPERMOBILITY: super lax ligaments that hold bones together move too far on weight bearing and allow arch to drop.
  • ​OVER-PRONATION- this will look like the foot and ankle roll  inwards too much and creates a flat foot appearance.
  • GENETIC POSITION:  your child's feet are a replica of a family member.
  • CULTURAL POSTURE: Certain ethnicities are more prone to flat foot profile.
 The inside of the foot and ankle is where many tendons enter in order to join the leg muscles into the foot. This forms an axis for the foot and ankle to work around. In flat feet this is a much larger axis for the muscles and tendons to action about due to the inward rolling of the subtalar joint.

PARENTS CHECKLIST

  • Does my child complain when they are walking?  This can come in the form of “my legs are tired”, “I have sore feet”; if your child is unable to keep up with their peers in the playground, or even refusal to do sports or activities. All kids express pain in different ways, sometimes we need to put on our detective’s hat and look deeper into whether or not their behavior is the result of pain.
  • ​How much physical activity is my child doing? When the amount of exercise increases, some children that have flat feet may get sore legs and feet. When kids jump and run they put 3 to 5 times the normal force through their feet. When muscle tissue in their feet and legs don’t adapt well to this extra load, their feet can become sore and inflamed. You may  notice rolling in of the feet and legs which is common postural change that happens over flat feet. Orthotic insoles can help the action of the foot and how it absorbs load.
  • Genetic mapping is a thing!: Check out their feet and see if they look like yours or their other biological parent. If they do, think about your experience growing up and whether your flat feet needed orthotic support. Do you have sore feet or knees now? What was your level of activity and exercise compared with that of your child? In these cases, some parents will chose to prevent possible pathologies (pain) with the inclusion of Orthotics in shoes.
  • ​What age is my child? When our little ones first start walking their feet look like flat little pillows and have a big fatty pad cushioning the arch. Much of the foot’s bone mass still needs to mature and appearances can be deceiving. At this stage of growth orthotics are generally not warranted. By the time our child hits 3 years they are beginning to get a more normal gait pattern and introduce a heel strike. Parents can adapt the same guidelines as the above questions at this stage.

Parents Checklist

Encourage Strong Healthy Feet at home.

Dr. Stacey Keating (Podiatrist)

Hi I'm Stacey!

I am a Podiatrist and Mother of two wonderful humans! For 19 years I've been practicing clinically with a special interest in SPORTS PODIATRY and PAEDIATRIC PODIATRY. During my time as a Podiatrist, I have run 6 national Podiatry Businesses and a Commercial Prescription Orthotic company with my Husband Matt. He is also a Podiatrist. It's been a privilege to have worked with so many kids and incredible athletes in my years working in the industry.

Through my 19 years of clinical practice I have managed many children with Flat Feet right into their adult years. I fully endorse a PROACTIVE approach to strengthening the foot and ankle of these children whilst simultaneously providing minimalist proximal pitched insoles to guide foot posture.

This online course and toolkit gives parents the opportunity to manage their child's Flat Feet from home and encourage strong healthy feet.

The Flat Feet Programme for Kids!
Designed by Dr. Stacey Keating (Podiatrist) to develop strong healthy lower limbs and feet. It includes a primary staged exercise programme + 2 reactivation exercise programmes + Kidzoles minimally pitch and pivot insole to guide walking foot posture.

The Flat Feet Programme for Kids

  • ​Why are there 12 weeks of exercises in Phase 1 of the programme? We know that its takes 3 weeks for muscles to strengthen and adapt. It also takes up to 12 weeks to ensure muscle memory. Muscle memory allows your child to reactivate the strength in the muscles quickly when required.
  • ​How long will these exercises take my child to do? No more than 10 minutes each day.
  • ​What age should my child be to do the programme? We recommend this programme for children 6 years and above.
  • When do the exercises change? Each 14 days within the online course. You'll receive an email reminding you to change. There is also a chart for your child to tick off their days.
  • ​Will my child have to stop sport? No your child can play sport through the programme.
  • ​What type/shape of orthotic manages this pain? The Kidzoles orthotic is podiatrist grade proximal orthotic insole. This means we work through the rearfoot mechanics to provide pitch and pivot points to guide the foot and lower limb. I don't believe in aggressive arch profiles for kids devices as I've seen first hand these devices weakening foot strength.
  • ​When can I expect to see their flat feet change? The Kidzoles insoles will help to move the axis of the foot and ankle when they are worn. Strengthening exercises will allow your child to tolerate extra load regardless of foot shape. The effects of the strengthening program will begin to show around week 4.
  • ​How long does the programme go for?  Phase one is 12 weeks. The reactivation exercise programmes occur at 9 months and 1.5 years past your date of purchase. These each run for 4 weeks to ensure muscle strength remains.
  • ​Do you provide a guarantee? Yes, Kidzoles provide a 40 day money back satisfaction guarantee.

Kidzoles Flat Foot Programme for Kids

Kidzoles orthotics are Podiatrist grade prefabricated orthotics designed by our Director Dr. Stacey Keating (Podiatrist). They have a focus on using proximal correction to guide the foot and lower limb mechanics.

These devices will be use to manage and reduce load. Your child should wear them in their sporting shoes as well as their school shoes. These orthotics will also fit in slim line sports shoes. 
Exercise band + Heel  lifts
The Exercise band will assist your child with doing their daily exercises.

The Heel Lifts are added to slim line sports shoes to create a better pitch axis. These will include waffle shoes and footy boots.
 Stretch + Strengthen Templates
This stretch and strengthening programme will help to provide long term strength for the muscles of the lower limb.

Each 2 weeks the exercise programme will change. You will receive an email with the new PDF attached for each level when they are due to change. There is also a handy chart your child can tick off each day to ensure they follow the exercise program. The exercises will take no longer than 10 minutes a day.

The membership to Kidzoles digital platform gives you Instant access to easy to follow VIDEOS. Our platform will feature explanations about kids with flat feet. As well as staged exercises in video format for you & your child to follow.
