Doctors, podiatrists, physiotherapists and rehabilitation specialists seeking to alleviate foot injuries, conditions and recovery can all refer directly to THANNER Australia.
Our custom process starts with an assessment of your patient’s clinical requirements to determine the type of footwear needed. From there, our measuring services ensure fitted shoes like no other, through the latest technology in 3D scanning. Patients choose the style and colour they desire, and the shoes are structured and designed in Australia before being manufactured by Thanner in Germany. Assembly, fitting and finishing touches are performed in Australia to ensure a perfect fit.
