Custom Orthotics in St Albans
The feet are the foundation of the body. They provide the necessary stability to perform daily activities by supporting the weight of the entire body. By combining chiropractic treatments with custom orthotic therapy, patients can benefit from reduced pain, improved mobility and a more active lifestyle.
When a patient comes in, we do functional, hands-on, applied kinesiology testing. We then observe them on and off orthotics to see how their body reacts to it. We work with Better Balance Orthotics, who provide a premium comfortable orthotic option.
A Firm Foundation
These special shoe inserts are tailored to an individual’s specific foot shape, weight, and activity level. When patients have a rolled-in ankle or an arch flattened more on one side than the other, it affects the alignment of the knee and the hip, and how they hold themselves from the ground up.
NEW Patients
They provide extra cushioning and stability for the feet, to help alleviate pain from plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, and other common foot conditions. Other conditions that might benefit include plantar fasciitis, bunions, bursitis, and tendonitis.
Orthotics also provide postural correction by correcting compensating behaviours in the body. They actually help adjustments last longer, as they balance your body and muscles from the ground up. By improving the body’s biomechanics and relieving foot, ankle, knee, hip, and lower back pain, these insoles help promote better balance, posture and mobility.
Working Together For You
When used in conjunction, chiropractic adjustments and custom orthotics provide a powerful solution for musculoskeletal health. During an initial chiropractic exam, your chiropractor will assess the patient’s condition to determine if they are necessary.
