Has anyone had any luck with orthotics? (for general use & cycling)
Have had on/off knee pain for the best part of 12 months now and have seen physios/stretched/strengthened/bike fitted and the like. It's stopped me riding any significant distance for the past 6 months. Gym work has helped slightly but my last physio appt. my funny gait/feet stance was noted and was referred to a podiatrist.
Saw the podiatrist this morning who is convinced a custom orthotic should sort out my knee/ankle issue. I trust him as what he explained made perfect sense, but I'm reluctant to get my hopes up just yet.
I wear orthotic inserts due to Plantar Fasciitis (the tendon on the bottom of the foot). Got them fitted at the local hospital, after I'd gone through the physio route. Seem to work well, and I've less aches that I used to when out walking.

Has anyone found them to help?
