Custom orthotics can benefit a wide range of individuals, from athletes seeking to improve performance and reduce the risk of injury to anyone experiencing discomfort while walking, standing, or running. They are also beneficial for those with diabetes who require specialized foot care, children with foot deformities to encourage proper growth and alignment, and elderly individuals looking to maintain mobility and reduce the risk of falls. Essentially, anyone looking to enhance foot comfort, correct biomechanical imbalances, or manage specific foot conditions can find value in custom orthotics.

Understanding Orthotics
Orthotics are custom-made devices designed to align the foot and ankle into the most anatomically efficient position. They look like insoles but are biomechanical medical devices that are custom-made to correct your specific foot imbalance. Orthotics work on feet much like glasses work on eyes – they reduce stress and strain on your body by bringing your feet back into proper alignment.

Orthotics Scarborough Village FAQs
How Long Does It Take to Adjust to Wearing Custom Orthotics?
The adjustment period for custom orthotics varies from person to person, but most individuals start to feel comfortable within the first two weeks of regular use. Initially, it’s recommended to wear them for a few hours each day, gradually increasing the duration as comfort improves. During this period, it’s normal to experience some discomfort as your body adjusts to the changes in support and alignment. However, any significant pain or prolonged discomfort should be reported to your practitioner, as your orthotics may require adjustments.
How Long Do Custom Orthotics Last?
The lifespan of custom orthotics depends on various factors including the material used, your activity level, and how well they are cared for. On average, custom orthotics can last anywhere from one to five years. High-quality materials and proper maintenance can extend their lifespan. It’s important to regularly inspect your orthotics for signs of wear and tear and consult with your practitioner for periodic evaluations to ensure they continue to meet your needs effectively.
Can I Wear My Custom Orthotics in Any Type of Shoe?
Custom orthotics are designed to be versatile, but their effectiveness can depend on the type of footwear. They work best in shoes with enough depth and a removable insole, as this allows for the orthotic to fit properly without causing your foot to sit too high in the shoe. Athletic shoes, supportive casual shoes, and work boots typically accommodate custom orthotics well. It’s recommended to bring a few pairs of your most commonly worn shoes to your fitting appointment with our chiropodist. They will provide specific advice and a tailored treatment plan.
