Orthotics are not just for people with foot pain.
What are Custom Orthotics?
Orthotics support, align, prevent and correct malalignments and improve functions of the foot. Proper support and alignment of the foot also allows the bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments to work efficiently, relieve any pain and prevent injuries. Orthotics are not just for people with foot pain. They can also help those who suffer from back pain, pain in the hips or knees, and people dealing with arthritis-related pain.
Benefits of Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics ensure you get the right fit that is unique to you and your needs. Custom-made orthotics can be prescribed here at Active Integrative Medicine by our chiropractic doctors and manufactured at an affiliate laboratory. A foam impression of the patient’s foot, along with a digital gait scan, are sent to the laboratory where they custom make an orthotic device specific to you and your dynamic structural alignment.
