The treatment of the first two stages of
flat foot deformation will usually start
with the use of the orthotics (shoe in-

insoles are made of a suitable material,
most often of a softer plastic mass or
harder sponge mass and in combination
with leather. Certainly, people with foot People do not often understand the ex-
