Are you always suffering from foot pain? Do your knees and lower back hurt after standing all day? Most people aren’t aware that their overall health begins at the very bottom, with their feet.
Custom Orthotics At Keele Physiotherapy & Wellness, we specialize in custom orthotics that do more than just cushion your step – they realign your body and improve your quality of life.
What Are Custom Orthotics?
Unlike the mass-produced insoles you find at a local drugstore, custom orthotics are medical appliances designed to fit the unique structure of your foot. No two feet are the same, so your orthotics shouldn’t be either.
After a thorough evaluation of your walking pattern and foot mechanics, a unique mould is developed. They fit snugly inside your shoes, providing support where you need it most.
Benefits of Custom Orthotics
The benefits of orthotics go way beyond foot comfort. Here’s how they can help:
- 1. Common Conditions Pain Relief
The treatment of such conditions as is very effective with custom orthotics. - Plantar Fasciitis: Reducing the stress on the ligament that connects your heel to your toes.
- Bunions & Corns: Relieving pressure on sore spots.
- High Arches or Flat Feet: Giving the structural support needed to avoid collapse or strain.
2. Better Posture & Alignment
“When your feet are out of alignment, the rest of your body compensates. This is often why you get “referred pain” in your ankles, knees, hips and even your lower back. Orthotics realign your feet to bring you back to a natural, healthy posture.
3. Improved Athletic Performance
For individuals who are active in North York, orthotics can help improve balance and energy transfer during running and other sports, as well as prevent stress fractures and shin splints.
