My wife has been plagued with bunions for quite a few years and they  are now starting to impact her running.
She thinks orthotics might be the way to go.
Can anyone recommend a good sports orthotic practitioner in Camrose/ Edmonton area?

Thanks in advance,

I don't have any info on orthotics, but when I was at the Big Sur trade show in California I bought a pair of shoes designed for women with bunions. They are adidas supernova shoes and have a little soft window like thing right on the inside of the foot where the bunions are.

I have had no problem with bunion type problems, but I do have an achilles tendon injury. The joys of running.

I got my orthotics from 'Karl Hager Limb and Brace' - in Edmonton - Love em - I figured if they can make prosthetics that work, they should be good at orthotics.  The fellow who fitted me had been successful in triathlons so he knew what I needed.
