Custom orthotic devices are effective in treating a variety of conditions which may impact function, mobility, and independence. Custom orthotics are often used to treat medical conditions such as diabetes, plantar fasciitis, arthritis and flat feet, along with a range of biomechanical foot and back issues. These issues can affect how an individual walks, stands, runs, and moves throughout their day. The goal of custom orthotic bracing is to help individuals establish a comfortable daily routine and prepare for special occasions or events.
Benefits of Custom Orthotics
- Diverse Range of Solutions

- Stable Movement
The guarantee of stable mobility can seem unreliable for those with foot, leg, or spine issues. Unstable movement can result in numerous concerns surrounding fall risks, reduced mobility, and limited independence. Custom orthotics are tools to give individuals the ability to increase mobility and independence with more stable, controlled, and supported movements. - Personal Goals
The independence that comes with stable, strong movement can benefit individuals in many ways. Increased mobility is complemented by the confidence that comes from independent movement, which allows individuals to reach their personal goals. Whether these goals include completing a 5K race or simply keeping up with your kids around the house, custom orthotics can lead to a more comfortable daily life and obtainable physical goals. - Pain-free Days
If pain is a daily reality for you, custom orthotics offer a way to reduce discomfort. Whether your primary pain is joint or muscle related, addressing the source of your biomechanical issues and correcting them with a custom orthotic can lead to improved, pain-free movement.
