What Are Foot Orthotics?

Foot orthotics are custom-made or pre-fabricated inserts that fit inside your shoes to support, align, and improve the way your feet function.

They are not the same as standard store-bought gel insoles — true orthotics are designed to address specific biomechanical issues.

Orthotics help by:

• Aligning your foot and ankle into an optimal position

• Correcting abnormal walking patterns (gait)

• Redistributing pressure to relieve stress on problem areas

• Absorbing shock to reduce strain on muscles and joints

Conditions Orthotics Can Help Treat

Custom orthotics are proven to be effective for many foot and lower limb conditions, including:

• Heel pain / Plantar fasciitis

• Flat feet (fallen arches)

• High arches

• Bunions & hammertoes (by redistributing pressure)

• Achilles tendonitis

• Shin splints

• Metatarsalgia (forefoot pain)

• Diabetic foot ulcer prevention

• Limb length discrepancy

• Knee, hip, and lower back pain caused by poor foot mechanics
