Custom Orthotics: What are they?

How Orthotics Can Help You?
You can use custom-made foot orthotics to treat many health conditions.
By redistributing weight evenly across your feet, custom orthotics relieve pressure from painful joints and areas prone to ulcers, especially important for diabetic patients.
From arch support to ankle stability, our orthotics are designed to bolster the natural structure of your feet and legs, reducing fatigue and enhancing balance.
By adjusting foot movement and alignment, our orthotics can correct biomechanical issues, reducing the strain on tendons and ligaments and preventing injuries.
Whether you're on your feet all day, engaging in sports, or dealing with specific conditions like plantar fasciitis or flat feet, our orthotics are tailored to your activities and challenges.
The Path to Orthotics
First, your podiatrist will complete a detailed biomechanical and clinical assessment to determine the best course of treatment. We'll consider your biomechanics, your history, and your condition.
We will recommend the best treatment. This could be custom orthotics, or something else.
Our advanced technology scans your feet to create a custom device that fits your body, needs, lifestyle, and feet.
We'll produce your orthotics using leading materials. Your orthotics will be one of a kind.
Now you can finally get your new custom orthotics.

What is the Difference between Custom and Off-The-Shelf Orthotics?
Custom foot orthotics are manufactured in many ways and with different materials. The biggest difference you’ll find will be:
1. Custom
2. Off the shelf
Custom orthotics are made-to-order and manufactured for each customer. They take an impression of the feet with either a laser, cast or foam to give exact measurements of the foot. The orthotics will then take that impression and design the orthotic to fit the individual. This is where the goal is to ensure that you have full mobility and function while running or walking.
Off the shelf products can be called “custom” when this isn’t accurate. Although they call it “customised”, this is a marketing term that encourages people to buy them. The quality and fit may be poor as they are mass-produced. Anything that is packaged and sold off-the-shelf will not be customised for you. You are definitely better off seeking a customised fit because feet are very different from person to person.
Common Questions About Orthotics
Yes. Orthotics might be recommended for both children and adults.
Just like prescription glasses, orthotics should be made especially for you. Packaged orthotics do not consider all the factors that make your feet unique. Custom orthotics are entirely tailored to you. They consider your height, weight, activity levels, footwear, types of activity, biomechanics and more. They indeed are one of a kind, and they’re made just for you.
No. No. Custom orthotics will not be prescribed unless our thorough biomechanical and clinical evaluation suggests that they are necessary.
