Custom Foot Orthotics

Our orthotics are custom-made devices that go on the inside of your shoes and are designed to help with foot, knee, and lower back pain. At Dr. J Chiropractic and Wellness Center, we make orthotics that provide a cushion for your feet to realign the bones of the foot and ankle and take pressure off other parts of your musculoskeletal system.

Since orthotics are designed to fit your feet, they can be slipped into most shoes and can be used for walking and any other physical activity. The weight distribution of your feet will impact the alignment of the rest of your body, which is why it is important to be able to distribute weight on them evenly. An unhealthy gait could put excessive pressure on your knee or back tissues, resulting in soreness and strains from overuse.

Orthotics sold in drug stores aren’t specific to your feet and are less optimal at providing the balance and support they need. As a preventive measure to get the most foot support possible, Dr. Jack McClanahan recommends all patients see him for custom orthotics. His custom orthotics can last well over a year and realign your feet so you can be active and pain-free.
