Services
Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics are designed to address specific foot and lower limb issues through 3D casting and tailored materials. We create rigid, semi-rigid, or flexible orthotics to alleviate pain, improve alignment, and enhance mobility for conditions like plantar fasciitis or diabetic foot complications. Each solution is tested and adjusted for optimal fit and function.
Footwear Modifications
Footwear modifications include stretching, sole splitting, and rocker soles to improve fit and comfort. These adjustments address pressure points, accommodate orthotics, and enhance gait efficiency. Modifications are tailored for everyday wear, specialty footwear, or sports-specific needs like skate or ski boot adaptations.
Lab Services
Our lab produces premium custom orthotics for healthcare professionals using CAD/CAM technology and hand craftsmanship. Services include cast storage, rush orders, and modifications, with a 5-day turnaround and 6-month warranty. We prioritize flexibility and transparency in pricing for clinical partners.
Diabetic Foot Care
Diabetic foot care focuses on preventing complications through custom orthotics with sacrificial layers and pressure redistribution. We educate patients on foot health, proper footwear, and exercises to reduce injury risks, ensuring tailored solutions for sensitive or at-risk feet.
Sport-Specific Footwear
Sport-specific footwear solutions optimize performance and comfort for activities like running or cycling. We assess biomechanics to recommend or modify footwear, ensuring proper support and alignment. Custom options address unique demands of sports, enhancing function while minimizing injury risks.
