Foot Orthotics

Foot orthotics are shoe inserts that can be custom-made to medical specifications or purchased at the local store. Custom-made orthotics are usually considered more effective and higher quality than pre-made orthotics.

Custom-made orthotics help with:

Correct abnormal walk or gait
Reduce pain
Prevent and protect foot deformity’s
Better positioning (foot alignment)
Take away pressure on the foot
Improve mechanics of the foot

Whether from an injury, disease, or condition, the cause of the foot pain is what lets the doctor and health coach know what type of orthotic to design. The removable inserts are made by a health coach taking a short 15-second scan of the foot/feet with a 3-D laser scan along with any adjustments. These scans will also analyze if there is pressure in the incorrect place. The custom orthotics can not only be made to correct posture and pain but can also improve heel spurs and plantar fasciitis.
