Tailored Support for Your Feet at Edison Foot Doctor
At Edison Foot Doctor, we provide custom orthotics designed to offer personalized support and relief for a variety of foot conditions. Orthotics are specially crafted inserts placed inside your shoes to correct biomechanical issues, improve comfort, and enhance mobility.
What Are Orthotics?
Orthotics are prescription medical devices made to support, align, or protect your feet. Each pair is custom-designed to fit the unique shape of your feet and address specific issues, including:
- Improving Foot Function: Correcting structural or alignment problems to promote smooth movement.
- Pain Relief: Reducing discomfort from conditions like plantar fasciitis, flat feet, or arthritis.
- Injury Prevention: Minimizing strain on muscles, tendons, and joints during daily activity or exercise.
Types of Orthotics
- Functional Orthotics: Control abnormal motion and provide structural support for issues like overpronation or underpronation.
- Accommodative Orthotics: Offer cushioning to relieve pressure points and reduce friction, ideal for diabetic foot ulcers or calluses.
- Custom vs. Over-the-Counter: While store-bought orthotics are available, custom orthotics are individually crafted for optimal fit and effectiveness.
Benefits of Custom Orthotics
- Pain Relief: Redistributes pressure and improves alignment for feet, ankles, knees, and lower back.
- Enhanced Comfort: Makes standing, walking, and exercising easier and more comfortable.
- Improved Functionality: Corrects gait abnormalities and supports proper foot and lower limb function.
