CUSTOM FOOT ORTHOTICS
What are Custom Foot Orthotics?
Hurt feet take the energy & joy from your life. Re-educating the way you walk lets you do more, see more, enjoy more. Custom prescriptive orthotics improve your foot dynamics and posture.
Custom Foot Orthotics are more than insoles. They are designed specifically to address disfunctions in your feet which in turn help your knees, hips and back resolve compensating issues. Whether you're needing them for every day wear, sports specific wear or other health reasons, we have a Pedorthist on staff who is eager to help you get the Orthotics you need!
Orthotics
Functional orthotics are built to alter and manage the gait and biomechanical disfunction of the body. These are designed to be worn in your every day shoes, and can be built to specifically improve your work boots, cowboy boots and running shoes.
Arthritic & Diabetic Orthotics
For someone with Arthritis and/or Diabetes, we build accommodative orthotics. These are accommodating the foot to the ground - to fill in the gaps to offload, reduce pain and improve comfort.
SPORTS ORTHOTICS
What sports need orthotics?
Whether you're playing hockey, ringette, volleyball or soccer, your footwear plays an integral part of your success!
Getting the right orthotics as part of your gear is beneficial, not just enhancing how you play but preventing unnecessary injuries.
Skate Orthotics
We specialize in Skate Orthotics!
These help realign your balance on the skate and provide support for your foot and ankle.
We do in-boot casts of your foot to ensure the orthotic is custom to your skate and feet.
