The Benefits of Custom Orthotics

Written By Active Health on June 27, 2023

Custom orthotics are created using a 3D impression of your feet, and then manufactured in a specialized material that is the correct rigidity and flexibility for your specific medical condition, symptoms, age, height, weight, and lifestyle. Our chiropractors might recommend custom orthotics if you suffer from plantar fasciitis, bursitis, diabetes, arthritis, or another health condition that affects your feet or your ability to walk. If you’re considering custom orthotics in North Palm Beach, FL, contact our office for more information.

Added Foot Support

Because custom orthotics are specifically designed for your feet, they provide significant support where and when you need it most. They can improve your balance and mobility, reduce stress and strain, correct misalignments, and correct foot abnormalities.

Joint Protection

If you already have a foot disorder, the stress of walking, running, and jumping puts extra stress on your joints that you can’t afford. Custom orthotics lessen the force and impact of these activities, so that your feet can properly support the weight of your body.

Reduced Pain

Certain food conditions can cause pain, stress, strain, inflammation, and fatigue in the muscles, tendons, and joints of the foot. Custom orthotics can support the foot so that it is less fatigued and painful, even after a day of walking. 

Improved Mobility

If you have trouble walking because of a foot condition, your custom orthotics can give you back your mobility. Your orthotics will offer foot protection, absorb shock and pressure, improve balance, and prevent pain and muscle fatigue. Over time, this means it will be easier for you to get up and around. 

Decreased Risk of Injury

Your custom orthotics will reduce your risk of further injury. Orthotics can prevent injuries like medial tibial stress syndrome, plantar fasciitis, and even knee pain.
