What Are Custom Orthotics?

Custom orthotics are medical devices for the feet. These orthotics, designed just for you, match precisely the contours and mechanics of your feet. The two types of prescription orthotics are functional and accommodative orthotics. Functional orthotics improve foot function, or how your feet move when you walk or run. These custom orthotics are usually made from plastic or graphite, semi-rigid materials that provide foot support. Accommodative orthotics provide cushioning and support. These orthotics are made from soft material, reducing the rubbing that causes pain, blisters, corns, and calluses.

AIRE Podiatry Studio recommends orthotics to treat many foot and ankle conditions. You could benefit from custom orthotics to treat your:

Achilles tendonitis
Ankle pain
Bunion
Diabetic foot ulcer
Flatfoot
Foot pain
Hammertoe
Heel pain
Painful corns or calluses
Plantar fasciitis

Skilled podiatrists might also recommend custom orthotics if you’re a dancer or an athlete with ongoing foot pain. These orthotics can improve how your foot moves in your shoe, reducing pain and possibly improving your athletic performance.

What to Expect From a Custom Orthotics Treatment

What is covered during your custom orthotics treatment at AIRE Podiatry Studio will depend on your foot and ankle needs. Either way, you can expect a thorough, patient-focused evaluation.

Your podiatrist reviews your concerns, goals, daily routine, and medical history. They examine your legs, feet, and ankles and might do a gait training analysis to see how your foot moves while you walk. They might also do in-house X-rays to evaluate your foot’s structure.

If your foot condition would benefit from custom orthotics, your podiatrist will discuss the device and how it works. Then, using their state-of-the-art scanner, they will take an image of your footprint, which they will use to make your custom orthotics.

You return to AIRE Podiatry Studio when your custom orthotics are ready for fitting. Your podiatrist will have you try on your orthotics and adjust them as needed. They will also provide guidelines on when to wear them, which could be all the time.

They make routine follow-up appointments to monitor your foot or ankle condition and evaluate your orthotic device, replacing it as needed.
