Custom Orthotics

Custom orthotics are made to help improve mis-alignments in the foot, help posture, or relieve any pain in the foot, leg or back. Custom orthotics are different from inserts that can be bought at a store because they are specially made to fit the unique shape of an individual's foot.  At Phyio East we use two methods to make your orthotics.  A cast is made by taking an impression of your feet, one at a time.  Your bare foot is placed into the box, making the surface conform. After the foot is taken out of the box, the unique shape of your foot appears. The molds are sent to Footmaxx, who uses techniques that help stabilize the foot and correct any problems.  We also use a specially designed computer mat.  When you walk on this mat it senses the pressure points on your foot as well as your gait.  Your completed custom orthotics are delivered within weeks.
