CUSTOM ORTHOTICS

If you suffer from pain in the foot, knee, hip or low back then custom orthotics may likely help you find relief. 

​

Did you know that custom foot orthotics can be extremely helpful for many problems beyond just painful feet? We often find that improper foot and ankle mechanics are the root cause of wa wide variety of lower limb problems including:

​

• Plantar Fasciitis (pain on the bottom of your foot or heel),

• Bunions,

• Shin splints;

• Knee pain from tendonitis, bursitis or arthritis (including, jumper’s knee and patella-femoral arthralgia, or PFA);

• IT Band pain and

• Hip bursitis;

• Piriformis syndrome and sciatica;

• Lower back pain.

 

For over 20 years, we have counted on the high tech Footmaxx Orthotic Lab as well as the more traditional Kiwi Orthotic Lab as our orthotic manufacturers. Since then, we have fitted hundreds of satisfied patients in the St. Albert and Edmonton area with what we believe to be the most technologically advanced orthotics available.

​

Advanced manufacturing materials allow Footmaxx orthotics to be extremely low profile, yet very durable, ensuring a comfortable fit in most shoes. Our Kiwi Lab orthotics provide more robust orthotic support.

​

We use semi-weightbearing foot impressions to obtain a functional 3D mold of your foot. We then combine that with a lower limb biomechanics examination and gait analysis. This approach allows us to analyze in detail how your foot moves with each step and how your foot mechanics impact your knee, hip and lower back mechanics which leads to orthotics that provide functional support for your entire lower body, feet. The result is improved lower limb bio-mechanics and pain relief. We truly believe that a properly manufactured orthotic should provide the support necessary to normalize your foot and ankle biomechanics while also feeling comfortable underfoot.

​

In fact, our Footmaxx orthotics work so well at relieving foot, knee, hip and low back pain they are the only orthotic lab we know of that offers a 100% guarantee on the orthotics. We’ve been amazed and we think that you will be too.

​

 

Foot Orthotics can be effective as a stand alone therapy, but they also works incredibly well when incorporated into a treatment plan that may include other soft tissue therapies like Active Release Therapy (ART) or Graston Therapy, Spinal Manipulation, Shockwave Therapy, Acupuncture, Kinesiotaping and/or exercise therapy.

​

The cost of Custom Foot Orthotics, like the other therapies we offer, may be either fully or partially covered under most health benefits plans. Note that some health benefits plans may require a prescription from your medical doctor in order to submit a benefits claim.
