Orthotics are supportive insoles used inside a pair of shoes. They are designed to have an impact on how the foot walks and moves to improve function and body alignment. They can be a fantastic solution to a lot of chronic lower limb conditions as they can have an ongoing impact on how you walk and your feet function.

Orthotics are not necessarily required for all the lower limb conditions listed below as there are often other solutions the are better or more cost effective but among the conditions that we can treat using orthotics are:

• Plantar fasciitis
• Achilles tendinopathy
• Most lower limb muscle tendinopathies
• Bunions (preventatively and for pain management)
• Ankle stability and pain
• Knee, lower back, and hip alignment
• Shin splints
• Stress fractures
• Bursitis

• Pre-fabricated orthotics these cost between $70-120 dollars depending not including appointments required. These come in small, medium, large etc type options and are a generic shape and fit.
• CFA orthotics(semi custom) these devices are made custom to the length and width of a patient foot 2 dimensionally but the arch height is a standard size proportionate to their length and width. These types of devices cost $395 including the orthotics and the  3 consults initial, issuing the devices and reviewing the orthotics.
• Fully custom orthotics, these are made by taking a plaster impression of the foot and are then sent to a laboratory to be made as fully custom one of devices. They allow an exact 3 dimensional fit and the podiatrist to choose any features they require. Such devices cost $650 including the orthotics and the 3 consults initial, issuing the devices and reviewing the orthotics.
