CUSTOM ORTHOTICS
Our Podiatrists Can Help With Biomechanical Analysis
Many foot problems are due to faulty biomechanics. which means, the bones in your feet are not aligned properly. This may cause you to over compensate when walking or running which can lead to painful foot conditions.
These conditions include:
Heel spurs
as well as knee, hip and back pain.
In addition to conservative treatments, these painful foot conditions can be alleviated with a custom orthotic. Just as prescription eyeglasses correct your vision and braces align your teeth, custom orthotics are inserts that fit into your shoes, thatare custom molded to correct yourfaulty biomechanics. This reduces abnormal motion while you walk or run, and equally disperses pressure on the bottom of your feet. Many of our patients not only receive relief from their foot pain, but also gain relief from their knee, hip and back pain. So, if you're suffering with foot pain, contact us for an evaluation to determine if you are a candidate for custom orthotics.
