Custom Foot Orthotics

Just as everyone has a unique personality, everyone has a unique body structure, foot shape, and movement pattern. Your feet play an important role in your overall health—they serve as a strong base for your body when you’re standing and walking. However, at times, your feet and body may benefit from extra support by wearing custom orthotics. Orthotics are prescription “shoe inserts” that slide into your shoes and support the unique shape of your feet. Similar to how prescription glasses reduce stress and strain on your eyes, custom foot orthotics reduce stress and strain on your body by bringing your feet, knees, hips and spine into proper alignment. Custom made orthotics not only offer relief from foot pain; they also improve the way your muscles, joints, and nerves work together to produce body movements (also known as Kinetic Chain). By improving your entire kinetic chain through balancing your foundation (your feet), orthotics may help reduce some of the pain you feel in other parts of your body such as your ankle, knees, hips, and back.

At Revitamax Rehab & Wellness, we will evaluate the way you walk, your posture, your symptoms and examination findings. Based on this information, we will be able to determine if you would be a candidate for custom foot orthotics. A cast or scan of your foot is done and used to design an orthotic that would be most appropriate for you. Revitamax Rehab offers a wide variety of foot orthotics in Etobicoke that fit your lifestyle including sports, casual, dress and speciality.
