Orthotics
Custom orthotics are biomechanical devices that are custom made to correct your specific foot imbalances.
Orthotics reduce stress and strain on your body by bringing your feet back into proper alignment. Custom orthotics fit comfortable into your shoes like insoles, with the advantage of being made from precise impressions of your feet.

- Hip or low back pain
What should I do?
Talk with your health care pracitioner about symptoms you are experiencing. After an examination and gait analysis, your health care practitioner will discuss whether your feet are contributing to your problems. Asking if your feet could be part of the cause is a great first step.
What do my feet have to do with it?
Your feet have a direct impact on the rest of your body. Like the foundation of a house, your feet support the weight of everything above them. When a small problem develops in your feet, a subtle change in the way you walk will cause a chain reaction in your posture. These changes put stress on joints higher up in your body that may lead to secondary problems.
