What are custom molded orthotics
- Custom orthotics are a prescription orthotic made from a 3D or plaster mold impression of your feet. They’re made just for you to help improve, support or correct your foot posture or treat any foot pathology you may be experiencing.
- Many lower extremity injuries and conditions occur as a consequence of abnormal foot and lower limb mechanics. Such abnormalities can have a significant impact on the feet, legs, pelvis and spine.
- Orthotics are used to treat numerous foot conditions. Depending on which condition you have, the design and the features of the device will help provide you with the best treatment outcome. Orthotics are never a standalone treatment, and your Podiatrist will recommend footwear changes, exercises and in some cases medication as well. Orthotics can be used to treat the following:
- Plantar fasciitis, bunions, knee pain, flat or high arched feet, bursitis, neuroma, foot injuries, Achilles tendinopathy
