We put our feet through a lot. From wearing inappropriate shoes to jogging on hard pavement, we expect a lot from them, which means that there’s plenty that can go wrong. From minor aches and pains to larger and more serious injuries and conditions, our feet sometimes need a little extra TLC. Take care of your feet with custom orthotics and discover how they can improve your quality of life. When you order your custom orthotics from Pacific Health and Sports Therapy, you’ll start to notice a difference .
Pain Relief
When it comes to finding a pair of shoes that fit, it’s easy to get it wrong. Some shoe styles just aren’t designed with the moving foot in mind. This can cause serious pain, which you adjust the way you walk in order to avoid it. By favouring one side over another to compensate for your discomfort, you’re likely to develop aches and pains in your shins, calves, knees, hips, and even lower back.
The truth about shoes is that manufacturers only design one type or style, so none will fit you perfectly. Custom orthotics give you instant pain relief because they fit you like a glove, so you’re not forced to stand or walk in an unnatural position. Orthotics relieve pain by giving support where you need it.
Support & Comfort
Does your heel feel the hard step of the pavement every time you walk? Does your arch ache whenever you take a step? Wearing an uncomfortable pair of shoes can make you feel tired and sore. Just as your feet support you, your shoes should support your feet. Your footwear should be comfortable and provide heel and arch support so that you’re not feeling every bump and step along the way. Mass-produced footwear isn’t designed to compensate for bunions, flat feet, high arches, or conditions like plantar fasciitis. Custom-made orthotic insoles are comfortable and can be worn all day long. They absorb shock, provide maximum comfort, and support the precise shape of your arch.
Posture Improvement
Wearing the wrong kind of shoes can significantly affect your posture. Custom orthotics aims to correct your alignment. Pacific Health will assess the biomechanics of your feet and make adjustments to ensure that your custom orthotics provide corrective treatment for bad posture. Find yourself becoming taller and more confident with orthotics.
