Custom Orthotics: Explore Your Options
Foot discomfort and certain movement concerns can lead people to explore custom orthotics. Whether orthotics are appropriate depends on the individual's circumstances and assessment.
What custom orthotics are
Custom orthotics are supportive devices made to fit an individual's feet, often considered when foot discomfort or certain movement concerns affect daily activity. They are one option among several — and whether they're suitable depends on a careful assessment rather than a blanket recommendation.
Not everyone with foot, knee, hip or back discomfort needs orthotics. An appropriate assessment helps determine whether orthotics may be worth considering and how they might fit into your individual situation.
Who May Explore Orthotics
Considering whether orthotics may help
People may explore custom orthotics when foot, heel or arch discomfort affects walking, work, recreation or daily routines. An assessment helps determine whether orthotics are an appropriate option for the individual.
Ongoing foot discomfort
Heel, arch or foot pain that affects daily activity and hasn't settled on its own.
Movement-related concerns
Discomfort that may be connected to how you stand, walk or move during the day.
After an assessment
A practitioner considers whether orthotics are appropriate alongside other care options.
