Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Foot Orthotics
01 What are custom foot orthotics?
Custom foot orthotics are individually selected foot-support appliances intended to address a person’s specific foot posture and gait needs. At Spinal Health in Etobicoke, the process begins with an examination of your foot posture and computerized gait analysis to determine whether custom orthotics may be appropriate for you.
02How does Spinal Health determine if I need custom foot orthotics?
Spinal Health assesses your need for custom foot orthotics through an examination of your overall foot posture combined with computerized gait analysis. The assessment looks at how your feet function while you move and how your foot mechanics may relate to your overall posture before an orthotic recommendation is made.
03What is computerized foot and gait analysis?
Computerized foot and gait analysis is an assessment used to examine how your feet function and move while walking. At Spinal Health, this analysis is combined with an evaluation of your foot posture to help determine whether custom foot orthotics may be needed and to demonstrate how foot mechanics may be affecting your overall posture.
04Can custom foot orthotics help with foot or gait discomfort?
Custom foot orthotics may be considered when foot posture or gait issues are contributing to discomfort or movement concerns. Spinal Health first performs a foot and gait assessment to determine whether orthotics are appropriate. Individual results vary, so the recommendation is based on your examination rather than assuming orthotics are suitable for everyone.
05Can foot posture affect overall posture and mobility?
