Orthotics are an excellent solution for addressing issues related to walking, as well as pain in the knees, feet, and lower back. They can help strengthen the bones in the foot and ankle, reducing stress on other areas of the body, such as the back, neck, shoulders, and hips. Custom foot orthotics also provide cushioning for your feet, offer comfort, support your arches, and evenly distribute your body weight to relieve pressure.
Custom foot orthotics are specially designed devices that fit inside most shoes. They are tailored to match the unique contours of your feet and are crafted to suit your individual movement patterns. Typically prescribed by a chiropractor, these custom orthotics are durable and can last over a year in most cases. While over-the-counter shoe inserts are available in most drugstores, they lack the precise, tailored fit that prescription orthotics offer. These generic inserts often fail to match the shape of your feet or provide the specific support you need.
We proudly use Foot Levelers orthotics for our patients. The Foot Levelers scanner provides clear insights into how foot imbalances may be affecting your daily life. Based on the scan report and your selected shoe type, it can even suggest customized shoe and orthotic recommendations.
Orthotics can benefit anyone experiencing discomfort from walking or dealing with imbalances that lead to pain in the body. One of the key advantages of custom orthotics is their versatility — they can be worn daily and used during various activities.
