What are Custom Orthotics?
Custom orthotics are specially made shoe inserts designed to support your feet and improve the way you move. Unlike over-the-counter insoles, custom orthotics are tailored to your unique food shape, gait and specific needs. They can help relieve pain caused by conditions like plantar fasciitis, flat feet (pes planus), high arches (pes carvus), or even back and knee issues. Whether you’re an athlete, someone on your feet all day or just looking for better comfort and support, custom orthotics can make a real difference in your daily life.
5 Reasons to Wear Custom Orthotics
- Improved Balance
- Improved Performance
- Symmetrical Foundation
- Enhanced Dynamic Function
- Reduces Pain
Ask your Chiropractor if custom orthotics can help you.
What to expect on your first visit
During your first visit you will be asked to complete some paperwork that provides basic information about yourself and your reason for contacting us. A consultation with the chiropractor will give you the chance to discuss your concerns and get to know one another. The chiropractor will complete a thorough health history and examination of your spine and nervous system. The doctor will check your posture, range of motion, reflexes, and perform other chiropractic, physical, and orthopedic tests. If it is determined that yours is not a chiropractic problem, the proper referral will be made. If the doctor feels that chiropractic will help your condition, a diagnosis will be rendered and a care plan of specific chiropractic adjustments will be recommended.

Safety
The safety and effectiveness of chiropractic treatment have been studied in-depth and very carefully. Studies have found chiropractic to be extremely safe and most effective in alleviating back pain, neck pain, headaches, and many other musculoskeletal conditions. If you are diagnosed with a condition more appropriately treated by another health care professional, we will make that referral.
