Experiencing discomfort in your lower back, hips, or knees? It’s time to uncover the hidden connection between your feet, shoes, and pain. Believe it or not, the alignment of your feet plays a pivotal role. But fear not, for there’s a solution: Custom Orthotics offered by our clinics in Oakville and Burlington. These ingenious devices have the power to transform your posture, refine alignment, and alleviate pain. Read on to discover how orthotics may help with your current injuries.

The Biomechanics of Custom Orthotics
Let’s start with a quick anatomy reminder that your musculoskeletal system (bones, muscles, and joints) enables day-to-day physical activities. Your feet along with your ankles are the foundation of the musculoskeletal system. Consequently, any dysfunction in them can impact the proper functioning of your legs, pelvis, hips, knees, and spine.

Despite referring to thee arch of your foot singularly, there are actually three:

Anterior transverse arch
Lateral longitudinal arch
Medial longitudinal arch
Your footprints give us clues about arch loss and the movement of your feet as you walk or run.

Asymmetry in the left and right landing of your feet affects your entire body. Imbalanced knee rotation, pelvic tilt, and shoulder drop manifest as:

plantar fasciitis
metatarsal stress fractures
Achilles tendonitis
shin splints

knee pain
abnormal hamstring stretching and tension
sciatica
low back pain
thoracic extension and rounded shoulders
tech neck and added load on your spine.
Made from durable and high-quality materials, custom orthotics slip inside your shoes surreptitiously to optimize your biomechanics. Orthotics gently adjust the alignment and weight distribution of your feet to alter the pressure coming from the ground to your foot.

By redistributing pressure on your feet, orthotics support the alignment of the joints in your feet, ankles, knees, and hips. They are used to:

Lessen foot pain by absorbing excessive ground reaction forces.
Improve the movement of your foot and lower leg by correctly positioning your foot inside shoes.
Decrease consequential strain in your body by adjusting any irregular walking patterns.
Correct your posture and improve gait mechanics.
In sports rehabilitation, custom orthotics support and stabilize affected areas to prevent stress and excessive movement on injured tissues.
Custom Orthotics as Part of a Full Treatment Plan
Orthotics work best when they are used in tandem with physical therapy and exercise.
