Foot Solutions – our new Nub sponsor – offers a free, comprehensive foot assessment! It's the first part of a 3 step process designed to help you become more active and be able to enjoy the beautiful walks around Richmond.

The store has improved the lives of thousands of customers all ages by helping them achieve a rewarding, active lifestyle via pain-free mobility.

Highly trained in-store consultants, led by manager Edgar Carvalho, take customers through an in-depth assessment process which includes; accurate measurement of the length and width of each foot, balance testing, posture and gait analysis and lifestyle requirements.

During the assessment, Foot Solutions also use digital scanning technology to create a topographical map of each foot and identify pressure point areas which need additional support.

This assessment is free with no obligation to purchase.

Information collected during the assessment process enables the team to produce a personalised support plan involving custom arch supports. The supports, which are tailored to suit the contours of the feet, can be produced as full or partial inserts and are designed to fit comfortably into appropriate footwear.

Feet are the foundations of the body and have to support the full body weight during the walking process. Custom arch supports, which stabilise and support the feet, help to align key joints including the spine in order to achieve optimal weight distribution.

For custom arch supports to achieve maximum benefit, they need to be worn with suitable footwear that can accommodate them and also provide a comfortable and stable fit for the feet. Foot Solutions provide a wide range of high quality shoes, boots, trainers and sandals for all activities and every occasion.

Manager Edgar told Nub News: "Many customers have significant mobility problems when they first come in. One lady in her late seventies hadn't been able to walk very far for years, but, with the help of custom arch supports and good footwear she can now enjoy long walks.

"Most Richmond based customers want to be more active and be able take advantage of the beautiful parks and riverside walks in the area. It's important to us that we help them maintain social activities and that they are not restricted by foot problems.

"A lot of our staff members have a background in biomechanics and this combined with a caring nature helps us provide a service we can be proud of.

"Ensuring that feet are properly supported reduces tiredness, increases energy and helps maintain good posture. This reduces discomfort and helps you stay on your feet much longer.

"We want our customers to be able to enjoy Richmond and its beautiful walks in comfort."

Foot Solutions is located at 4 Red Lion St, Richmond TW9 1RW, only 5 minutes from the station.
