- Individualized Design
- Uniquely designed for each individual and created based on a thorough assessment of the person’s foot anatomy, biomechanics, and any specific foot-related concerns or conditions.
- Prescription-Based
- Unlike over-the-counter shoe inserts, custom orthotics are prescribed by specific healthcare professionals and are based on a comprehensive evaluation of the individual’s foot structure, gait, and any existing foot or lower limb issues.
- Material Selection
- Custom orthotics are made from a variety of materials, such as foam, gel, or carbon fiber. The choice of materials will depend on the individual’s specific needs and the intended purpose of the orthotic device.
- Support and Alignment
- A primary purpose of custom orthotics is to provide support and promote proper alignment of the feet and lower limbs. They can address common issues such as overpronation (excessive inward rolling of the foot) or supination (insufficient inward rolling), which contribute to conditions such as plantar fasciitis, shin splints, knee pain, or other joint pain above.
- Foot Pain Relief
- Alleviation of foot pain and discomfort associated with conditions such as flat feet, high arches, bunions, arthritis, or diabetic foot problems.
- Enhanced Shock Absorption
- Can be designed to provide shock absorption and reduce impact forces during walking or running. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals engaged in sports or activities that place additional stress on the feet and lower limbs.
- Accommodation of Foot Deformities
- Crafted to accommodate specific foot deformities or irregularities, providing a more comfortable and support fit for individuals with unique foot structures.
- Sports Performance
- Athletes will often use custom orthotics to enhance their performance by improving biomechanics, reducing fatigue, and preventing injuries related to improper foot alignment.

Custom orthotics are personalized, prescription shoe inserts designed to provide support, correct foot abnormalities, and address specific biomechanical issues. These orthotic devices are crafted based on an individual’s foot structure and gait pattern, offering a tailored solution to alleviate pain, enhance stability, and promote proper alignment.
