With proper care, custom orthotics typically last between 2–5 years. The lifespan depends on your activity level, footwear, and any changes in your foot structure over time.
-
Over-the-counter insoles provide basic cushioning, but they are not corrective. Custom orthotics are made from a 3D impression of your feet and specifically designed to correct imbalances, improve function, and treat the underlying cause of pain.
-
Absolutely. Since your feet are the foundation of your body, improper alignment can create stress all the way up the kinetic chain. By improving foot mechanics, custom orthotics can reduce pain and strain in your knees, hips, and lower back.

After a gait and posture assessment, we take a 3D foam impression of your feet. This is then sent to a local pedorthist who fabricates your custom orthotics to match your unique foot structure and needs.
