Default Biomechanics, feet and the work place

Podiatry Arena members do not see these ads
Hi
I am wondering if anyone has pertinent papers or can direct me to pertinent papers on the efficacy (or not) of orthotics or other insert material upon workplace issues to do with the foot, pain, energy expenditure. My clinic is in a Occ' Health setting and the info would be useful for them.

Quite happy to look myself but a short cut would be helpful as much of my Lit search and reading is given over to designing a research project for image analysis work, which I can happily bore you with some time

Thanks
Ian

Hello there.

Does any one else know of any other articles similar to this? Or best place to look for stats and info in relation to foot related overuse injuries etc? Especially for occupations where you stand and walk for the majority of your shift.

Looking frantically, just can not find a whole lot that I am after.

Kind regards,
Dean
