Custom Orthotics for Stability & Alignment

Support Your Foundation. Move Better.

Foot mechanics play a huge role in performance and comfort. If you’re dealing with shin splints, plantar fasciitis, or chronic knee or hip strain, we may recommend custom orthotics designed to support your foot structure and reduce excess stress on your joints. We create a custom Foot Levelers mold right in our clinic for a precise, personalized fit.

Who It Helps

Common Reasons to Consider Orthotics

  • Plantar fasciitis, heel pain, or arch pain
  • Shin splints and recurrent ankle issues
  • Flat feet (over-pronation) or very high arches
  • Knee, hip, or low-back strain linked to foot mechanics
  • Standing or walking all day for work
  • Athletes seeking better alignment and shock absorption

What to Expect

Your Orthotics Visit

  1. Assessment: We evaluate posture, gait, and foot mechanics.
  2. Custom Mold: We take a Foot Levelers foam impression to capture your unique foot structure.
  3. Fabrication: Your orthotics are crafted to your mold for targeted support.
  4. Fitting & Break-In: We review footwear, fit, and a short break-in plan.

Most orders are ready in ~2–3 weeks. Many patients notice easier standing and walking, and less post-activity soreness as alignment improves.

Why Custom vs. Off-the-Shelf?

Precision That Matches Your Foot

  • Crafted to your arch profile and heel position
  • Consistent support for both daily wear and training
  • Durable materials for comfort and stability
  • Pairs well with chiropractic care and rehab exercises
Footwear

Do They Fit My Shoes?

In most cases—yes. Athletic, casual, and many dress shoes work well. We’ll help you choose which pairs to use first for the smoothest transition.

Care & Longevity

Break-In & Maintenance

  • Start with 1–2 hours on day one; increase daily as comfortable.
  • Wipe with a damp cloth; air dry away from heat.
  • Typical lifespan with daily use is ~1–2 years.
