Custom orthotics are specially designed shoe inserts that provide support, alignment, and balance tailored to each patient’s unique foot structure. Unlike over-the-counter insoles, custom orthotics are created using precise measurements and scans, ensuring they address specific imbalances in posture, gait, and weight distribution.
In chiropractic care, the foundation of the body starts with the feet. Misalignments or imbalances in the feet can contribute to issues in the knees, hips, pelvis, and spine, often leading to pain, discomfort, or recurring musculoskeletal problems. By correcting these imbalances at the foundation, custom orthotics help support the adjustments made during chiropractic treatments.
Benefits of Custom Orthotics in Chiropractic Treatment:
-
Promote proper spinal alignment by stabilizing the feet and ankles
-
Reduce stress on joints and muscles
-
Improve posture and balance
-
Enhance the effectiveness and longevity of chiropractic adjustments
-
Provide relief for conditions like plantar fasciitis, low back pain, knee pain, and hip pain
When combined with chiropractic care, custom orthotics create a comprehensive approach to healing by addressing both the root causes of pain and the resulting misalignments.
