What are orthotics?
Your feet are the foundation of your entire body. Faulty foot mechanics may begin with any of the following: Localized foot pain, bunions, or knee or hip pain. Prescription orthotics are medical appliances that are custom-made to correct your specific foot imbalance. Orthotics work on the feet in a similar way braces work on the teeth—by exerting gentle, consistent pressure to bring foot muscles and bones back in proper alignment. The orthotics are made from impressions taken of your feet and are composed of a flexible molded thermoplastic.
King West Village Chiropractic Clinic carries a wide variety of inserts, shoes, and sandals that meet your lifestyle needs.
Administered and dispensed by a Chiropractor, Dr. Suzanne Muha
