Benefits of Custom Foot Orthotics

Being on your feet all day can cause aches and pains in your feet and lower body. If your feet are not properly supported, moving can cause stress and strain. There is a wide variety of foot orthotics on the market that are designed to provide relief. However, custom foot orthotics provides the most because they are designed for your foot and your foot only. With years of medical training in foot care, Drs. Lin or Weiss is an expert in treating foot problems with orthotics.


Custom orthotics are made from “casts” or molds of your individual feet. In addition, “angled posts” or wedges are added that match the angular relationship between your leg, rear foot, and forefoot. Unlike an arch support, a custom orthotic moves with your foot and controls certain parts of your foot at certain times during your walking cycle. Although orthotic devices may look like simple pieces of plastic, they come in a variety of materials and profoundly affect your entire musculoskeletal system.
