We’ve helped over 20,000 people with their custom orthotics needs. We provide multiple modalities such as casting and foam box techniques for capturing an accurate static representation of the foot in those patients with a non-propulsive gait or a significant deformity, for accommodation of the pathologic condition. As well, we will continue to provide the dynamic force plate with 3D imaging technology for those with biomechanical problems.

Our team of well trained Chiropodist and Kinesiologists can help you with all your custom foot orthotic needs.

	MetaScan Dynamic Gait Analysis Our Metascan dynamic software scans the foot 150 times per second tracking 8 key points along the plantar surface of the foot. Our dynamic display captures bilateral plantar pressure during the stance phase of gait. Gait observations show each of the 8 key points relative to pressure and time in a colour corresponding to the 2D and 3D composite image and displays gait analysis data. These type of orthotics are typically for those who fall into a normal range of foot function with mild biomechanical deficiencies. The Metascan diagnostics translates the digital information along with the clinician information into a prescription for custom orthotics.
	Slipper Casting Technique Slipper casting is similar to plaster except that it is less messy and time consuming as it is in a sock not fabric roll format and leaves no residue on the client's foot since a bag is placed over the foot first. By capturing the correct foot position (subtalar joint in neutral) in the cast this technique is great for those who require additional correction. This is usually taken non-weight bearing. When done weight bearing or semi-weight bearing you get more tissue deformation and may lose rearfoot to forefoot alignment.
	Foam Foot Impression Technique Foam box impressions involve pushing the foot into a foam box (with subtalar joint in neutral) either from a standing or seated position. This can be a semi-weight bearing or full-weight bearing technique often used if someone requires a less aggressive (more accommodative) shell shape is desired such as for severe arthritics or diabetics (sores on foot). This technique is used for clients with no forefoot to rearfoot misalignment.

How they work

Custom-made foot orthotics are designed to fit inside the shoes you wear most. They are designed to decrease abnormal motion of the foot while allowing for normal movement. They realign the foot to a more usual or "neutral" position, restore balance, improve performance and serve to eliminate or reduce foot, back and leg pain by improving function and efficiency. There are several styles which can be worn comfortably in most types of shoes.

Common Uses

If you have arch pain, heel pain, plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, shin splints, flat feet, calluses, corns, bunions, or hammer toes, cramping, aching or tired legs, you can achieve an improvement. Certain types of knee pain such as patella femoral syndrome, osteoarthritis, runner’s and jumper’s knee can be alleviated. The support that is provided helps control excessive pronation and helps control counter rotations on the lower extremity. If you have a neuroma, geriatric, or diabetic foot problem, orthotics can provide you with needed protection and comfort.

Imbalance in your feet can distort the skeletal architecture of your body. While foot orthotics will not make a marked improvement in posture, they may eliminate posture problems or pain caused by your feet.
