Custom orthotics are specialized medical devices designed to support, align, and improve the function of the feet and lower extremities. Unlike over-the-counter insoles, custom orthotics are individually crafted based on a detailed assessment of a patient’s foot structure, gait mechanics, and posture.
By correcting abnormal foot biomechanics, orthotics help redistribute pressure, improve alignment, and reduce stress on the ankles, knees, hips, and spine. This can play a key role in addressing both localized foot issues and compensatory pain patterns throughout the musculoskeletal system.
Custom Orthotics: Supported from the ground up
Custom orthotics are commonly used to address:
Foot pain such as plantar fasciitis or metatarsalgia
Flat feet or high arches and overpronation
Heel and arch pain
Knee, hip, and lower back discomfort
Postural imbalances and gait abnormalities
Foot irregularities
Uneven wear on shoes
Custom orthotics may help improve mobility, reduce pain, and support overall structural alignment, contributing to better function and injury prevention.
Individuals who are on their feet for long periods of time or athletes may benefit from custom orthotics.
Most insurances have coverage for orthotics with a prescription from your chiropractor, medical doctor or nurse practitioner.
