A gradual weaning process from orthotics combined with foot strengthening exercises is recommended to adapt feet to carrying load.

“we usually wean them out in the same way i used to wean people in which is i'll say take them out for an hour in the morning but keep them with you you don't want to take them out and go cold turkey and it depends again on how much they're doing if they're walking to work and they're going three miles you don't want that to be the hour that they take them out maybe walk a half a mile without them or a mile without them and then just slowly take them out and use your body to judge if your feet are feeling sore put them back in”
