Orthotics are custom-made devices designed to support, align, and improve the function of your feet and lower extremities. At Neighborhood Medical Center in Dallas, TX, we often recommend orthotics for various reasons, helping our patients achieve better mobility and comfort.
-
Correct Misalignment: Many individuals have structural foot issues, such as flat feet or high arches, which can lead to misalignment. Orthotics can provide the necessary support to correct these issues and promote proper alignment.
-
Pain Relief: If you experience chronic foot, ankle, knee, or lower back pain, orthotics can help distribute pressure evenly across your feet, reducing discomfort and preventing further injury.
-
Enhanced Performance: Athletes and active individuals can benefit from orthotics by improving their performance and stability. Proper support can enhance agility, balance, and overall athletic performance.
-
Injury Prevention: Wearing orthotics can help prevent injuries caused by repetitive strain or improper foot mechanics. They provide stability, reduce stress on joints, and support proper movement patterns.
-
Custom Fit: Unlike over-the-counter insoles, custom orthotics are tailored specifically to your foot's unique shape and needs, ensuring optimal comfort and effectiveness.
