Do you have flat feet? Do you often get bursitis or fasciitis? You might need custom-made orthotics. Our Clarenville clinic can measure your feet and create orthotics that will help you develop a better posture.
What Are Orthotics?
Custom orthotics are devices designed to align the foot and ankle into the most anatomically efficient position. They are biomechanical medical appliances that look like insoles and that are custom-made to correct your specific foot imbalance. Custom orthotics work on your feet much like glasses work on your eyes: they reduce stress and strain on your body by bringing your feet back into proper alignment. The plastic body of the custom orthotic helps to re-align the foot by redirecting and reducing certain motion that takes place during the gait cycle. Custom orthotics fit into your shoes as comfortably as an insole, and they have the advantage of having been made from precise imprints of your feet.
The symptoms of poor foot mechanics can include any one of the following:
Your health care practitioner can prescribe custom orthotics to help correct your specific foot and body imbalance. You can help your health care practitioner by discussing any nagging foot, leg or back problems and even by simply asking if your feet could be part of the problem.
