I have a question for those who are a little more biomechanically minded than myself... What should my orthotic be doing for the adult patient who pronates excessively causing pathology and pain (often plantar fasciitis) but has significant rearfoot varus. So, in other words they are pronating from an inverted rearfoot position to a more "vertical" calcaneal position as seen in both resting stance and the midstance of gait.

In the past I have prescribed orthotics to address the excessive pronation using the "old STJ neutral model" and I ahve ended up with devices that can cause lateral instability.... What should my orthotic prescription be in these cases?
Thanks for any advice.
