Benefits of Custom Foot Orthotics

If you experience pain in your ligaments and muscles while walking or running, you may benefit from custom foot orthotics. Foot orthotics, also known as shoe inserts, are devices that are designed to be placed in a shoe to help correct a deficiency or a condition and to help add support to the feet. If feet are misaligned, or out of balance, orthotic insoles can eliminate discomfort associated with these issues. Dr. James Huggins, Jr. of Carolina Chiropractic Center creates orthotics that are tailored to provide ultimate comfort.

Custom foot orthotics are molded to a patient’s foot to correct abnormalities or to take pressure off the feet. In addition to helping with foot pain, orthotics can reduce impact shock that feet experience when walking. Orthotics can help take pressure off the knees, hips, and lower back. In many cases, foot orthotics can also help patients retain and enhance their mobility.
