The technology used to create custom orthotic uses precise measurements and can be used to create a supportive device in any shape we need. Unlike the inserts you find at the store, these devices are made using your exact measurements and are just for your foot, no one else's.

Using an insert or a brace that's made to fit your foot precisely will give you a much greater benefit than a “one size fits all” approach.

FAQ about Custom Foot Orthotics and Bracing
Will my custom orthotic be uncomfortable?
Your foot orthoses might be just a little uncomfortable until your feet get used to them which can take around 2-4 weeks. Sometimes your physiotherapist will advise you to ease into them gradually and will let you know when and how long you should wear them. If your orthotics are causing you pain and you feel as if you cannot get used to them, please let us know so we can make any necessary adjustments.
Do I have to wear foot orthotics all the time?
Once you get used to wearing the orthotics, it’s recommended that you use them any time you’re active. It’s also recommended that you don’t stop wearing them abruptly once your feet are used to having them.
How do you measure my feet?
We’ll get measurements and do a gait analysis of your feet while they’re in a neutral position meaning they’re not supporting any weight. Advanced 3D scanning or plaster mold are typically used to measure each part of your foot with the greatest possible precision.
