What Can Custom Orthotics Help With?

Custom orthotics may be recommended for concerns such as:

  • Plantar fasciitis: Foot orthoses can provide targeted cushioning and arch support to help manage heel and arch discomfort.
  • Flat feet or fallen arches: A custom device can redistribute pressure and support foot alignment during standing and walking.
  • Knee pain or instability: A knee orthosis may provide alignment, stability, protection, or controlled movement based on the diagnosis.
  • Diabetic foot concerns:Specialized foot orthoses can redistribute pressure and help protect areas at risk for skin irritation or breakdown.
  • Post-surgical recovery: Orthoses may stabilize or limit movement while a joint or limb heals, based on the treating provider’s plan.
  • Neuromuscular conditions: Custom bracing may support alignment, stability, and safer movement for certain conditions.

You are welcome to call even if you are unsure what type of support you need. Prescription and referral requirements can vary by condition and insurance plan, so our team will explain what is needed before your appointment.

What is the Difference Between Drugstore Insoles and Custom Orthotics?

A drugstore insole adds cushion, and for a minor ache, it may be all you need. Custom orthotics are made from measurements or impressions of your feet and selected around your anatomy, gait, pressure patterns, activity level, and clinical needs. During a consultation, we can help determine whether an over-the-counter or custom option is appropriate.

For custom foot orthoses, we evaluate your feet, footwear, gait, and pressure patterns, then take the measurements, impressions, or scans needed for fabrication. When the orthoses are ready, we check their fit in your shoes and make adjustments as needed.
