Custom Foot Orthotics

Orthotics are custom-made inserts for your shoes that are designed to support and improve the functioning of your feet. They correct and eliminate biomechanical problems arising from structural imbalances in the foot, which can result in ankle and knee pain, pelvic or hip pain, spinal pain and even headaches. Custom-fitted foot orthotics prevent foot misalignment, modify areas of weight-bearing within the foot, and are able to alter the way in which the bones move within their joints.

At Thrive Family Chiropractic you will receive a full assessment of your gait and the motion of joints of the lower limb. Custom-fitted orthotics will only be recommended if deemed beneficial by the doctor. During your evaluation, we will look at how your gait is affecting your body as a whole.
