Custom Orthotics
The bones of the foot are intended to move in specific ways during gait (walking) cycle and while standing. When these arenโt moving properly, they can negatively affect the forces going through the foot, leg, knee, and even higher up into the hips and the low back resulting in pain and discomfort. Orthotics help to support and maintain proper biomechanics and alignment, reducing stress through joints and reducing forces through muscles and tendons.
A great way to compliment manual and exercise therapy, orthotics made specifically for your feet and functional needs can help eliminate and reduce pain from the ground up while benefiting your overall musculoskeletal health. Supplementing our bodyโs natural system of support, custom insoles are created to suit your foot mechanics and lifestyle.
With foot health impacting our posture, muscle balance, and joint stress, it is paramount to have up-to-date orthotic practices in place. Which is why Dr. McCann uses insurance approved 3D casting techniques and materials to provide a custom orthotic built to suit any body type and exercise level.
