11236 Orthotics
As your foot care experts, we at Body & Feet will examine, evaluate, diagnose, and treat a wide variety of illnesses and conditions that affect your feet or your ankles. And while some problems, such as fungal infections, are not related to how you walk or your footwear choices, many others are, such as heel spurs and flat feet. Among the ways that our foot doctor can help is with our
11236 orthotics, designed to correct circumstances that have led to you suffering discomfort or even severe pain.
What are orthotics exactly? They are inserts that are put into your shoes. Some can be purchased over-the-counter from your local drug store or supermarket. And for mild to moderate issues, those will often be sufficient to address the situation. However, we also have custom-made ones that we offer to you, our valued patient, when you have a more extreme case or when store-bought shoe inserts have been tried and not been effective in achieving the desired outcome. If that happens, our
11236 orthotics are the ideal solution. A condition such as heel spurs, which occurs when calciums deposits form on the underside of your foot, may be helped significantly by the use of an orthotic. A related condition, plantar fasciitis, which also affects the heel, can similarly be treated with our
11236 orthotics. And flat feet, which may be an inherited problem for many people, is a perfect example of an issue that can be addressed with inserts. Of course, it is only appropriate to take the step of using shoe inserts if you are experiencing pain or there is good reason to suspect that you will be.
Make an appointment with our foot doctor by calling our office. When it is uncomfortable to walk or in some cases even to just stand up, it can impact your entire life. Let us offer relief.
