A custom orthotic is a device designed to align the foot and ankle into the most anatomically efficient position. They look like insoles, but are biomechanical medical appliances that are custom made to correct your specific foot imbalance. Custom orthotics work on your feet much like glasses work on your eyes - they reduce stress and strain on your body by bringing your feet back into proper alignment. The plastic body of the custom orthotic helps to re-align the foot by redirecting and reducing certain motion that takes place during the gait cycle. Custom orthotics fit into your shoes as comfortably as an insole - and they have the advantage of having been made from precise imprints of your feet.

Will My Third-Party Insurance Cover The Cost Of Custom Orthotics?
Most insurance plans cover custom orthotics. With that said, some plans will only cover the cost of custom orthotics if they are dispensed by an approved health care professional (chiropodist, podiatrist, chiropractor, etc). Please check your insurance plan to be sure which professions are covered. All of our orthotics are fitted and dispensed by our chiropractor. We provide you with an invoice, proof of manufacturing, and a completed assessment form, all of which you might need during your claims process.
Why Do My New Custom Orthotics Feel Uncomfortable?
What Kind Of Shoe Do I Need For My Custom Orthotics?
For the most part any shoe that has a removable insole will work with your custom orthotic. Just remove the insole that came with the shoe and replace it with the custom orthotic.
Will My Muscles Get Weaker Wearing Custom Orthotics?
Custom orthotics will not reduce muscles tone. They will help position your foot so you will be using the right muscles at the right time, minimizing fatigue and allowing your muscles to be used more efficiently.
