Foot or Knee Pain?
What do my feet have to do with it? Your feet have a direct impact on the rest of your body. Like the foundation of a house, your feet support the weight of everything above them. When a small problem develops in your feet, the subtle change in the way you walk will cause a chain reaction of adjustments in your posture and walking mechanics. These changes can put stress on joints higher up in your body, and lead tomore serious problems.
How do we reduce these problems? Customized orthotic inserts.
How Do I Know If I have a Problem?
The symptoms of faulty foot mechanics can include any one of the following:
- Localized foot pain
- Bunions, hammer toes
- Arch and/or heel pain
- Leg and/or knee pain
- Hip or back pain
All of the above problems can be reduced or completely alleviated by using orthotics.
What Are Prescription Orthotics?
Prescriptioin orthotics look like insoles, but are biomechanical medical appliances that are custom made to correct your specific foot imbalances. Orthotics work on your feet much like glasses work on your eyes – they reduce the stress and strain on your body by bringing your feet back into proper alignment. Orthotics fit into your shoes as comfortably as an insole and they have the advantage of having been made from precise computer generated imprints of your feet.
