Flat feet Treatment in Orthorehab Center
About the clinic
Flat feet treatment at Ortho Rehab Center in Alimos, Athens, focuses on restoring proper foot alignment and movement through advanced digital analysis. The clinic combines over 30 years of musculoskeletal expertise with the specialized skills of Dr. Athanasios Badekas. As a visiting professor at NYU’s Hospital for Joint Diseases, Dr. Athanasios Badekas was the first Greek orthopedic surgeon to receive advanced podiatric surgery training.
Diagnostic methods for flat feet
Precision is vital for managing foot deformities, so the clinic uses objective tracking tools. Testing identifies where the foot is overloaded during movement. Diagnostics include:
- Pedobarography and gait analysis. This digital tool visualizes foot pressure and load distribution while standing or walking.
- Musculoskeletal ultrasound. The Central Health Authority certifies this imaging to assess soft tissue health around the arch.
- Pediatric orthopedic evaluation. Specialists assess children for functional imbalances and developmental flat feet.
- Physiatric evaluation. A physical medicine specialist reviews how foot alignment affects the rest of the body.
Non-invasive and therapeutic treatments
Most patients start with conservative options to manage pain and improve stability. The clinic uses Kinvent Physio technology to monitor patient progress during these sessions.
- Custom orthotic insoles. These are created based on pedobarography data to address specific pressure points.
- Shockwave therapy (ESWT). This 15-minute outpatient procedure uses sound pulses to treat plantar fasciitis, a common complication of flat feet.
- Clinical pilates. Using Reformers and mat work, this program improves core stability and lower limb alignment.
- Kinvent performance tracking. This technology provides biofeedback to help patients control their movements more effectively.
Surgical options and recovery
If conservative methods do not provide relief, Dr. Athanasios Badekas performs corrective procedures. The surgical approach focuses on maintaining patient independence throughout the recovery process.
- Minimally invasive foot surgery. This technique corrects deformities like hallux valgus that often accompany flat feet.
- Same-day mobility. The surgical protocols allow patients to walk on the same day as their procedure.
- Permanent correction. Surgery aims to fix the bone structure to prevent the return of foot pain and deformity.

Orthorehab Center: more details about the clinic
Established in 1996, Ortho Rehab Center is a specialized musculoskeletal diagnostic and rehabilitation clinic. It is located in the Alimos district of Athens, Greece. The facility operates as a multi-specialty center. It integrates orthopedic and physiatric care with advanced diagnostic imaging. The clinic features dedicated areas for orthopedic evaluation, physical medicine, and therapeutic applications.
Musculoskeletal Excellence and Scientific Recognition
The center has dedicated over 30 years to musculoskeletal recovery. It has earned recognition from the scientific community through participation in international meetings. Thousands of patients have trusted the clinic for chronic pain management and postoperative care. The medical team includes specialists with international training and academic backgrounds in foot and ankle surgery.
Rehabilitation and Orthopedic Specialties
Ortho Rehab Center provides complete care for a variety of conditions. Specialists manage complex issues through coordinated rehabilitation plans. The clinic focuses on several key areas:
- Foot and Ankle Surgery: Surgeons perform minimally invasive correction for hallux valgus (bunions) and digital deformities. These techniques allow patients to walk on the same day.
- Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation: The team manages fractures, adductor strains, and ligament ruptures. Therapy combines device-based modalities with personalized movement programs.
- Physiatry and Pain Management: Physicians focus on restoring function through non-surgical interventions. They specialize in treating sports injuries and pelvic floor dysfunction.
- Pediatric Evaluation: The clinic assesses children for flat feet using digital gait analysis. This helps identify functional imbalances early in development.
- Medical Aesthetics: The premises host a dermatology clinic for skin boosters and biostimulators. Treatments include non-surgical blepharoplasty and electromagnetic muscle strengthening.
Each treatment plan is adjusted continuously based on objective progress data.
Advanced Diagnostic and Treatment Technologies
The clinic uses specialized equipment for diagnostic accuracy and measurable recovery. Diagnostic imaging includes musculoskeletal ultrasound certified by the Central Health Authority. This technology allows for targeted injections while avoiding nerves and vessels. The clinic also uses several technological platforms:
- Pedobarography: This system provides digital visualization of foot pressure. It records real-time load distribution during standing and walking to highlight overload areas.
- Kinvent Physio Technology: Sensors record objective data on muscle performance and balance. Patients receive real-time feedback through a dedicated application.
- Akuis Syntesi: A robotic smart resistance system provides electronically adjustable loads. It uses biofeedback to adapt resistance during neuromuscular training.
- Therapeutic Modalities: The clinic uses TECAR therapy for deep heat treatment. Other options include rPMS magnetic stimulation and deep tissue oscillation.
Specialists also use shockwave therapy (ESWT) for chronic tendon-related pain and delayed healing.
Integrative Care and Support Services
Rehabilitation often incorporates Clinical Pilates to restore core stability. These sessions are clinically guided by physiotherapy principles. For neurological recovery, the clinic provides Myofx Training System sessions. Certified physiotherapists deliver these through supervised training.
Medical acupuncture is also available to regulate energy flow and activate the nervous system. Typical sessions last between 20 to 40 minutes.
Physicians monitor patient progress through a structured return-to-activities plan. This includes specialized support for postoperative patients, such as those recovering from ACL reconstruction. The center provides ongoing monitoring so every patient reaches their functional goals.
