Custom Foot Orthotics

Stop Foot Pain at Its Source

Foot, ankle, knee, hip, and even lower back pain often begin with poor foot mechanics. When your feet are not functioning properly, every step places abnormal stress on your body. Over time, this can lead to chronic pain, fatigue, instability, and an increased risk of injury.

At Edge Podiatry, we specialize in prescription custom foot orthotics designed specifically for your feet, your lifestyle, and your unique biomechanics. Unlike generic over-the-counter inserts, custom orthotics are medically prescribed devices that address the root cause of pain rather than simply masking symptoms.

Using state-of-the-art 3D scanning technology and biomechanical analysis, we create orthotics that are precisely tailored to provide optimal support, comfort, and long-term relief.

What Are Custom Orthotics?

Custom orthotics are medical devices that fit inside your shoes to improve foot alignment, redistribute pressure, support deformities, and enhance overall foot function.

By correcting abnormal biomechanics, custom orthotics can help:

• Relieve foot and ankle pain

• Improve balance and stability

• Reduce stress on joints

• Improve walking and athletic performance

• Prevent recurring injuries

• Slow the progression of certain foot deformities

• Delay or potentially avoid surgery

Many patients are surprised to learn that chronic foot pain is not normal and can often be significantly improved with properly designed orthotics.

Conditions Commonly Treated with Orthotics

Custom orthotics can be highly effective for a wide variety of conditions, including:

• Plantar fasciitis

• Heel pain

• Arch pain

• Flat feet

• High arches

• Tendonitis

• Achilles pain

• Bunions

• Hammertoes

• Morton's neuroma

• Metatarsalgia

• Arthritis

• Shin splints

• Knee pain

• Hip pain

• Lower back pain

• Diabetic foot conditions

• Sports-related injuries

• In-toeing and out-toeing gait abnormalities

• General foot fatigue and discomfort

Why Choose Custom Orthotics Instead of Store-Bought Inserts?

While over-the-counter inserts may provide temporary relief for some individuals, they are designed for the average foot—not your foot.

Custom orthotics offer several advantages:

Precision Fit

We utilize advanced 3D scanning technology to capture the exact shape and mechanics of your feet, allowing us to create a truly customized device.

Better Support

Custom orthotics are designed to control abnormal motion, support weakened structures, and redistribute pressure more effectively than generic inserts.

Longer Lasting Relief

By addressing the underlying biomechanical cause of pain, custom orthotics often provide more durable and effective results.

Improved Function

Patients frequently notice improvements in walking, standing, exercise tolerance, balance, and overall comfort.

Our Advanced Orthotic Evaluation Process

At Edge Podiatry, every orthotic prescription begins with a comprehensive biomechanical examination.

Your evaluation may include:

• Digital gait analysis

• Biomechanical assessment

• Foot structure evaluation

• Pressure distribution analysis

• 3D foot scanning technology

• Review of current footwear

• Activity and lifestyle assessment

This detailed approach allows us to design orthotics specifically for your needs rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all solution.

Orthotics for Athletes

Whether you are a runner, golfer, basketball player, walker, or competitive athlete, proper foot mechanics are essential for performance and injury prevention.

Athletic orthotics are designed to:

• Improve efficiency and performance

• Absorb repetitive impact forces

• Reduce fatigue

• Enhance stability

• Decrease stress on the feet, ankles, knees, and hips

• Help prevent common sports injuries

We customize orthotics for a variety of athletic activities, ensuring the device matches your sport and activity level.

Orthotics for Work and Everyday Comfort

Many people spend 8 to 12 hours per day standing, walking, or working on hard surfaces. Over time, this can lead to foot fatigue, arch pain, heel pain, and joint discomfort.

Our accommodative orthotics are designed to provide all-day comfort and support while helping reduce strain on your feet and lower extremities.

These devices are particularly beneficial for:

• Healthcare workers

• Teachers

• Retail employees

• Construction workers

• Factory workers

• Service industry professionals

• Anyone who spends long hours on their feet

Diabetic Orthotics

Proper footwear and custom orthotics are critical components of diabetic foot care.

Diabetic orthotics are specifically designed to:

• Reduce pressure points

• Prevent skin breakdown

• Improve comfort

• Accommodate foot deformities

• Reduce the risk of diabetic ulcers

Using specialized materials such as Plastazote, diabetic orthotics help redistribute pressure away from high-risk areas and protect vulnerable tissues.

Insurance Coverage

Many insurance plans provide coverage for custom orthotics, often resulting in little to no out-of-pocket expense for qualifying patients. Coverage varies by plan, and our staff can help verify your benefits before treatment.

We are happy to discuss your insurance options and determine whether custom orthotics may be covered under your plan.
