Custom orthotics can provide relief for foot, leg and back pain.Custom orthotics address the specific issues affecting your feet. Custom orthotics are orthopedic devices designed to treat or adjust various biomechanical foot disorders. Custom orthotics are produced as an insert for the shoes and they can correct an abnormal or irregular walking pattern. Custom orthotics perform functions that make standing, walking, and running more comfortable and efficient, by altering slightly the angles at which the foot strikes a walking or running surface. Because your feet provide support for your entire body, when there is a misalignment your entire body can be adversely affected. Custom orthotics are intended to correct this problem. An alignment problem can cause the ankles to break down, the knees to bend inward and the hips to drop. The back tries to compensate but this can cause muscles to strain from the lower back to the shoulders. Custom orthotics are engineered to help your feet maintain the alignment of the body. Orthotics may be simple, commercially made devices, such as cushioned heel cups or insoles for shoes (see Phase4 Orthotics below). The best orthotics, however, are custom orthotics which are specifically crafted to meet the needs of a particular individual. Almost anyone can benefit from custom orthotics. Properly produced custom orthotics provide the patient with the support, stability, cushioning and alignment necessary to keep his or her, ankles and lower body comfortable, healthy and pain-free.
