Custom made orthotics are specially designed shoe inserts that support your feet, improve alignment, and reduce strain on muscles and joints. They are an effective solution for relieving foot pain and improving overall comfort during daily activities.

At Downtown Foot Clinic, our licensed chiropodists provide comprehensive assessments and create personalized orthotics tailored to your specific needs.

 

What Are Custom Made Orthotics

Custom orthotics are medical devices designed to:

    • Support the arch of your foot
    • Improve foot alignment and posture
    • Redistribute pressure evenly
    • Reduce strain on joints, muscles, and ligaments

Unlike over-the-counter insoles, custom orthotics are made specifically for your feet based on a detailed assessment.

 

Conditions Orthotics Can Help With

Custom orthotics may be recommended for:

    • Plantar fasciitis (heel pain)
    • Flat feet or high arches
    • Arch pain and foot fatigue
    • Knee, hip, or lower back pain
    • Overuse injuries
    • Poor foot mechanics

Orthotics help address both symptoms and underlying causes.

 

Our Orthotics Process

We use a comprehensive, step-by-step approach:

    • Detailed biomechanical assessment
    • Gait analysis (how you walk)
    • Non-weight-bearing 3D foot scan for precision
    • Custom fabrication based on your needs
    • Follow-up fitting and adjustments

This ensures your orthotics are accurate, comfortable, and effective.

 

Benefits of Custom Orthotics

    • Improved comfort during walking and standing
    • Reduced foot, knee, and back pain
    • Better posture and alignment
    • Prevention of future injuries
    • Long-term support for daily activities

 

Kids Orthotics

Why orthotics are important for children

Children’s feet are still developing, and early intervention can help prevent long-term issues. If a child has poor foot alignment or abnormal walking patterns, it may affect their posture, balance, and activity level.

 

Common signs your child may need orthotics

    • Flat feet or inward rolling ankles
    • Frequent tripping or poor balance
    • Foot, leg, or knee pain
    • Uneven shoe wear
    • Complaints of fatigue during activity

 

How kids orthotics help

    • Support proper foot development
    • Improve walking and running mechanics
    • Enhance stability and balance
    • Reduce strain on growing joints
    • Prevent future complications

Early support can make a significant difference in long-term foot health.
