What are custom orthotics?

Custom orthotics are medical grade insoles designed from your unique foot shape and movement pattern. They support alignment, reduce pressure points, and improve comfort for walking, work, and sport.

Do I need a referral for custom orthotics in Buttonville Markham?

No referral is required. Many extended health plans provide coverage with proper documentation. Our team supplies detailed receipts and reports.

Which conditions do orthotics help?

Common reasons include plantar fasciitis, heel pain, flat feet, bunions, knee or hip pain, lower back discomfort linked to foot mechanics, and repetitive strain from long standing or walking.

How long do custom orthotics last?

With daily use most last one to three years. Activity level, body weight, and footwear influence lifespan. We provide fit checks and adjustments as needed.

How we assess, prescribe, and fit your custom orthotics

Step 1 — History and movement screen

We start with the story of your pain, footwear analysis, and a quick movement screen. We look for telltale signs like medial collapse, forefoot pressure, or ankle stiffness that can lead to plantar fasciitis, knee discomfort, or back tightness.

Step 2 — Biomechanical exam and gait analysis

We check arch height, rearfoot and forefoot alignment, ankle mobility, and loading patterns during walking. If needed, we capture angles and cadence to fine tune the prescription.

Step 3 — Prescription and fabrication

Material, posting, and cushioning are selected based on your body weight, footwear, job demands, and sport. Your Custom Orthotics in Buttonville Markham are built to support the arch, control excessive motion, and redistribute pressure without creating new hot spots.

Step 4 — Fitting and follow up

On delivery we trim for your shoes, review wear in instructions, and schedule a check. Small adjustments make a big comfort difference during the first two to three weeks.
