The custom orthotics provide support, and the pediatric night splint passively stretches the calf and heel tendons during sleep, resolving Sever’s disease in most cases within 4 to 8 weeks.

Within 2-4 weeks, as your child consistently wears the orthotics and utilizes the night brace, inflammation will be dramatically reduced and range of motion improves. At this point, participation in activities generally becomes less painful.

Yes, the custom orthotics are designed to fit into your child’s current shoes or cleats.

Please make sure their shoe has laces to allow for proper fitting.

Yes, your child can continue participating in sports while using the Mikki Device. The custom orthotics provided are designed to fit into your child’s regular shoes or cleats.

The kit includes 2 custom orthotics, a pediatric night brace, and a step-by-step treatment plan with support from a Sever’s specialist.

In the initial 4-6 weeks it is recommended that the child wear the orthotics everyday as much as possible. Once the condition is controlled we recommend that the child wear the orthotics at school and regular activities.

It is recommended that the child stop wearing the orthotic after 1 year as they will have outgrown the orthotic. Some children will get severs again as their growth plates are still open and may require another Mikki Device™ orthotic.

The night brace is should be used on your childs most symptomatic foot first for the 1st week and then alternate. This is the best practice as children may have difficulty sleeping with two night braces on at the same time, although some parents choose to order two anyways.

You will receive your Mikki Device™ orthotics from the lab 1 week after the lab receives your child’s foot mold.

Children ages 8 to 13 are most affected by heel pain due to Sever’s disease.

Boys are more likely to experience Sever’s disease than girls, with a ratio of 72% boys to 28% girls.
