Support Your Feet. Enhance Your Mobility. Live Pain-Free.
Your feet are the foundation of your body, and when they aren’t properly supported, pain can ripple throughout your knees, hips, and spine. At Pro-Active Medical Centre, our Custom Orthotics Program is designed to provide personalized support for your feet, improve your posture, and reduce pain caused by misalignment or overuse.
Whether you suffer from chronic foot pain, arthritis, or sports-related injuries, our custom orthotics can help restore balance, improve mobility, and enhance your quality of life.
Understanding Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics are specially designed inserts that fit into your shoes to correct biomechanical imbalances, support your arches, and distribute pressure evenly across your feet. Unlike off-the-shelf insoles, custom orthotics are tailored to your individual anatomy, ensuring maximum comfort and effectiveness.
Common conditions that benefit from orthotics include:
- Flat feet or high arches
- Plantar fasciitis (heel pain)
- Bunions and toe deformities
- Arthritis in the feet or knees
- Shin splints and overuse injuries
- Postural or gait-related issues
When your feet are properly supported, your entire body functions more efficiently, reducing stress on joints, muscles, and ligaments.
Our Approach to Custom Orthotics
At Pro-Active Medical Centre, we take a comprehensive and patient-centered approach to orthotic care. Each pair of orthotics is crafted after a thorough evaluation of your feet, posture, and gait. Our process includes:
1. Detailed Assessment
Before creating your orthotics, we conduct a thorough assessment, which may include:
- Medical history and symptom review
- Physical examination of feet, ankles, knees, and hips
- Analysis of gait and weight distribution
- Foot scans or molds for precise measurements
This ensures that your orthotics address your unique needs and provide optimal support.
2. Custom Design and Fabrication
Using the latest technology, we design orthotics that:
- Correct structural imbalances
- Support arches and heels
- Reduce pressure on sensitive areas
- Improve alignment of knees, hips, and spine
Your orthotics are crafted from high-quality materials to provide durability, comfort, and long-term effectiveness.
3. Fitting and Adjustment
Once your custom orthotics are ready, we provide a precise fitting and make any necessary adjustments to ensure comfort and effectiveness. We also guide you on:
- Gradually adapting to new orthotics
- Proper footwear choices
- Maintaining your orthotics for longevity
4. Follow-Up Care
We schedule follow-ups to monitor your progress, make adjustments if needed, and ensure that your orthotics continue to provide optimal support as your condition or activity level changes.
