Services | Orthotics
Orthotics provide functional support to a falling arch in the foot. As we age, the repetitive force of 6,000-10,000 steps a day can start to stretch the ligaments in our feet that hold up the arch. This dropped arch, also called an over pronated foot, will force an internal rotation of the lower leg, thereby creating instability in the knee, hip and low back. Appropriate orthotics support that arch and help to renew proper movement patterns in the lower extremity. A thorough exam can determine if your pain is a result of improper foot mechanics.
