Custom-made plantar orthotics are a medical device made to stabilize, realign and properly redistribute pressure on our feet. Orthotics work on your feet like glasses work for your eyes. Custom-made orthotics help reduce the strain on your body by properly re-aligning your feet. They fit inside your shoes like any insole but provide advanced support and control.
Myth
Orthotics are bulky and are difficult to fit in shoes.
Reality
From running shoes to high heels, using innovative techniques and materials, your podiatrist can produce an orthotic adapted to your lifestyle.
How do custom-made orthotics work?
- Many people think custom-made orthotics make your feet weaker. On the contrary, custom-made orthotics are not crutches for your feet. They help re-position your feet so you use the right muscle at the right time. This not only helps you reduce muscle fatigue but also helps you use your muscles more efficiently.
