How to Customize Your Foot Support
If you thought your over-the-counter orthotics would meet your individual walking needs, you’re not alone — the customers before and after you had the same hopes. At Westfield Foot and Ankle, LLC, we recommend the best solution for customizing your foot support: custom orthotics. We know the value of these specially made, one-of-a-kind devices, but we also know how tempting it may be to select an over-the-counter pair.
Here are three reasons to choose custom orthotics:
Custom orthotics are made just for you.
When we prescribe a pair of custom orthotics, many steps take place before this decision is made. To start, our office performs a complete evaluation of your feet, ankles, and legs. This allows us to note any unique foot needs. We then use 3D scanning technology to make your orthotics. Remember, custom orthotics are made for you — and no one else. These helpful devices match the contours of your feet, and they are designed for the way that you move.
Custom orthotics treat a variety of foot needs.
Custom orthotics provide extra support and help to reduce pressure to painful areas — unique to your body. At our office, we are qualified to treat the following conditions, which are greatly improved by the use of orthotics.
Tired, aching feet
Frequent sprained ankles
Lower back and knee pain
Walking pain
Flat feet
Corns and calluses
Custom orthotics last longer.
While over-the-counter orthotics may last a few months, custom orthotics can last for years. Save yourself time — and money — by choosing custom orthotics. Why go back to the store every few months hoping to solve your foot problems?
