[quote=Anonymous] Thought I would post in case it is helpful to anyone. Son has HFA, pronation and flat feet and his gait was abnormal even with orthotics. For so many years we got those special mail order orthotics-Dafo chipmunks maybe- but finally now that his foot growth has slowed and we have good insurance, we got custom made orthotics specific to his feet. It makes such a difference. I wish we had done this earlier because his gait looks so much more normal and the more we can do to help him fit in the better. We could have tried it earlier because with our insurance the custom ones end up being cheaper than the mail order which are not covered at all. I had not looked into it enough and really didn't think about it until foot growth slowed.[/quote]
