CUSTOM ORTHOTICS
Diagnosis
Eighty percent of the population has one foot that rolls inward more than the other. This can cause considerable stress, pain, or misalignment of the feet, knees, back and even the neck. Problems can occur when you're in the wrong shoes. People with low arches as well as runners need more stable, motion-control shoes, and those with high arches need more cushioning. Orthotics are often the solution for structural deficiencies but if your pain can be caused by tight or weak muscles. Noel Chiropractic can analyze a patient’s feet and posture to determine if a custom shoe insert may help.
Treatment
If all else fails, custom orthotics are probably the way to go. We will make a mold of the patient’s feet and provide custom orthotics in 3-4 weeks. Not only are they molded specifically for your foot, but the materials chosen to make the orthotics reflect your particular needs. Custom-made orthotics should last at least five years, and can also refurbish them every couple of years to prolong their lives.
