Specialty-made support devices called Custom Orthotics are designed to support and comfort your specific feet based on your specific needs in your specific situation. These prescription insoles are solely crafted for you, matching the contours of your feet and the way you move precisely. After a complete evaluation of your feet, ankles, and legs, the orthotic can support your unique movements and foot structure.
Who would be a candidate for Custom Orthotics?
Not everyone will need custom orthotics. Some people will be able to use over-the-counter in-soles that use standard sizes. Those that would likely need customer insoles to include:
Performance Athletes
Suffer From Diabetes
Have a reoccurring foot injury
Have a foot disorder
Have poor circulation
Have a foot deformity caused by arthritis
