What is an orthosis?
A custom or off-the-shelf brace or support — such as a foot orthotic, ankle-foot orthosis (AFO), knee brace, or spinal brace — that supports, aligns, or improves how a limb or the spine functions.
Custom or over-the-counter — which do I need?
Custom orthoses are molded to you for specific medical needs; over-the-counter supports help with mild, general issues. We evaluate your situation and recommend the right level of support.
Are orthotics covered by insurance?
Many custom orthoses are covered with a prescription and documented medical need. We verify your benefits before you commit to anything.
How long do custom orthotics last?
Foot orthoses commonly last one to three years and rigid braces longer. Lifespan depends on your activity, growth (for children), and changes in your condition.
Do you make custom orthotics for plantar fasciitis or flat feet?
Yes. Our certified pedorthist makes custom foot orthotics and insoles for plantar fasciitis, flat feet, arch and heel pain, and diabetic feet — molded to your feet and gait.
