Foot pain isn’t just a minor annoyance; it can impact your entire day and quality of life.
Fortunately, custom orthotics offer an effective solution for conditions like flat feet, plantar
fasciitis, and joint pain. But what exactly are custom orthotics, and how do they work?
Custom Orthotics: Tailor-Made for Your Needs
Unlike over-the-counter insoles, custom orthotics are designed specifically for your feet. Dr.
Vincent Leering, a North Vancouver chiropractor with over 25 years of experience, uses
advanced Gait Scanning technology to create orthotics that provide support exactly where you
need it. This helps in redistributing weight and aligning your entire body, alleviating pain not just
in your feet but also in your knees, hips, and lower back.
Conditions Orthotics Can Help With:
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Flat Feet and High Arches
- Knee Concerns
- Hip Pain
- Overpronation
- Ankle Problems
- Lower Back Issues
Dr. Leering has been providing Customized Orthotic assessment and dispensing since 1997. Through use of the computerized The Gait Scan System under license by The Orthotic Group.
Dr. Leering brings decades of experience to using a specialized computer program and force plate to measure your feet. The computer scans your feet sixty times per second to get the specific touch pattern of your unique foot. The computer will analyze the timing of pressure, compare it to other areas of your foot, and then compare it to where you should be. This data is then subjected to some fancy math so that that custom curve of the orthotic can be built for your foot.
Our skilled assessment successfully provides custom fit without adjustment in over 95% of cases
If you’re experiencing foot or joint pain, book a consultation with Dr. Leering to see if custom
orthotics are right for you.
