Orthotics in Caledon East
Your feet form the foundation for your entire body, so you want them to function and feel great. When they don’t function properly, the effects can travel upward, creating problems in your knees, hips, and spine. The good news?
Beyond One-Size-Fits-All Insoles
Unlike generic drugstore insoles, custom orthotics are precisely designed for your unique foot structure and movement patterns. Through detailed assessment, including foam casting or 3D scanning, we capture the exact contours of your feet. This allows us to create inserts that provide support exactly where you need it, whether you have flat feet, high arches, or specific pressure points that require relief.
Conditions That Benefit From Orthotics
Custom foot support helps address numerous conditions throughout your body. They’re particularly effective for plantar fasciitis, metatarsalgia (ball of foot pain), bunions, and general foot discomfort. Beyond foot issues, proper orthotics can help alleviate knee pain, hip discomfort, and even lower back problems by improving your overall alignment and gait mechanics. Many patients find that orthotics complement their chiropractic care by helping maintain proper alignment between adjustments.
The Fitting Process
Your orthotic assessment begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your foot structure, gait, and posture. We examine how your feet function while walking and identify areas where improved support could benefit your overall mechanics.
After taking precise measurements through either foam casting or digital scanning, we send this information to our trusted lab partners at Footmaxx or the Orthotic Group. When your custom orthotics arrive, we’ll ensure they fit properly and provide guidance on breaking them in for maximum comfort and benefit.
Long-Term Benefits
Most people associate orthotics with reducing foot pain, but their benefits extend far beyond that. By improving your foundation, custom orthotics help your entire musculoskeletal system function more efficiently. This can enhance athletic performance, reduce fatigue during long periods of standing or walking, and potentially prevent future injuries by correcting imbalances before they create bigger problems.
