Orthotics

Orthotics, more than just insoles, are custom-made devices designed for individuals to wear inside their shoes. They play a pivotal role in offering the necessary support, correcting foot imbalances, and ensuring proper foot function.

Do I need orthotics?

Here’s what may cause the need for orthotics

  1. Flat Feet or High Arches: Uneven weight distribution can lead to pain and other foot complications.
  2. Plantar Fasciitis: Inflammation of the foot’s arch can be alleviated with the support of orthotics.
  3. Bunions: Caused by misaligned big toe joints, orthotics can help realign the foot’s structure.
  4. Heel Spurs: Growth of calcium deposit on the underside of the heel bone.
  5. Foot, Knee, or Back Pain: Often, improper foot function can be a root cause of pain in other parts of the body.
  6. Uneven Wear on Shoes: A sign that your feet may not be aligned properly.
