Ongoing foot pain can often be debilitating for those suffering from the discomfort. In order to help alleviate the pain, a chiropodist may suggest you wear custom orthotics. Custom orthotics fit perfectly for your foot and are made specifically for your type of foot condition. For some, orthotics make performing day to day activities easier and less painful.
Orthotics are especially useful for those with foot pain and those who may have fallen arches. Orthotics may help properly reposition the structures of the foot, easing the pressure and rebalancing the distribution of weight on the feet. Those with arthritic feet or those experiencing pain due to plantar fasciitis may find relief with orthotics, as they also tend to find issues with arch complications. Orthotics are a great way to give your feet extra support, which can come in handy for those who tend to stand or work on their feet for the majority of the day. The next type of patient who made aid in the use of orthotics are those with diabetes. It’s more likely for those with diabetes to develop corns and calluses. When this occurs, the friction of the corn or callus against your footwear can be extremely uncomfortable and painful. Orthotics, in this instance, can be useful in reducing the pressure placed upon the affected areas.
If you’d like more information about the type of orthotics that is best for your condition, we suggest you speak with a chiropodist for a professional recommendation.
Proper Comfortable Orthotic Insoles

Orthotics are "not" regulated devices as anyone can make/sell them, people should be concerned... Healthy Advantage only employs one method when designing orthotics, the correct method which is in a "non weight bearing arch capture position" that correctly identifies the natural FULL shape of your foot arch. How can a foam box, upward shaping pins or walking on a mat capture the FULL arch when standing? It's flattening the arch! The result will look like an orthotic, but is a true mis-interpretation of your foot shape and is NOT providing full support, how could it be? You won't buy glasses with 1 lens, so why on earth would you settle for less than 100% support from your orthotics?
Chiropodists including Cynthia Chan train more extensively in the function, bio-mechanics and orthotic manufacturing than any other foot care practitioner when we make orthotics for you, you know they’ll fit right & benefit you. If for any reason they break or aren't comfortable, we'll make it right (warranty included.) For kids we have an "out-grow" program where we will replace your childs orthotics free of charge.
