Custom Orthotics
Designed for You
What Are Custom Orthotics?
Custom orthotics are medical-grade shoe inserts that are designed specifically for your feet. Unlike over-the-counter insoles that are made for general use, custom orthotics are created based on your unique foot structure, alignment, and walking pattern.
These devices are prescribed by a podiatrist after a thorough evaluation and are crafted to fit comfortably inside your everyday shoes. Custom orthotics are designed to support proper foot and ankle alignment, improve weight distribution, and help reduce strain on muscles and joints throughout the lower body.
Because no two feet are exactly alike, custom orthotics are personalized to your needs—whether you spend long hours on your feet, lead an active lifestyle, or experience ongoing foot or ankle discomfort. With the right support, custom orthotics can help improve comfort during daily activities and promote long-term foot health.
How Custom Orthotics Can Help
Custom orthotics are designed to support the natural structure of your feet and improve how they function during everyday activities. By addressing your unique foot shape and movement patterns, custom orthotics can help reduce stress on the feet, ankles, and lower body.
Many patients find that custom orthotics help:
- Improve comfort while walking, standing, or exercising
- Support flat feet or high arches
- Reduce heel, arch, and general foot pain
- Promote better foot and ankle alignment
- Decrease strain on the knees, hips, and lower back
- Provide added support for active lifestyles or long hours on your feet
Unlike over-the-counter inserts, custom orthotics are made specifically for your feet and lifestyle needs, offering targeted support that can improve daily comfort and long-term foot health.
Who Can Benefit from Custom Orthotics?
Custom orthotics can benefit people of all ages who experience foot or ankle discomfort or want better support during daily activities. Because they’re designed specifically for your feet, orthotics can help address a wide range of support and alignment needs.
You may benefit from custom orthotics if you:
- Experience ongoing foot, heel, or arch pain
- Have flat feet or high arches
- Spend long hours standing or walking
- Notice foot fatigue during daily activities
- Are active in sports or exercise regularly
- Have foot or ankle alignment concerns

A podiatrist can evaluate your feet and determine whether custom orthotics may help support your comfort, movement, and long-term foot health.
Our Custom Orthotics Process
At Ankle & Foot Centers of America, our custom orthotics process begins with a comprehensive evaluation by a podiatrist. We take the time to understand your symptoms, daily activities, and how your feet move when you walk or stand.
Using advanced measurements or imaging, we capture detailed information about your foot structure and alignment. Your custom orthotics are then designed specifically for your feet, footwear, and lifestyle needs.
Once your orthotics are ready, we ensure proper fit and comfort, making adjustments if needed. Our goal is to provide personalized support that helps improve comfort, stability, and long-term foot health.
What to Expect During Your Visit
During your visit to Ankle & Foot Centers of America, your podiatrist will begin with a thorough evaluation of your feet and how you walk or stand. This helps identify areas where additional support may be beneficial.
You’ll have the opportunity to discuss your symptoms, activity level, and footwear needs. If custom orthotics are recommended, detailed measurements or imaging will be taken to ensure a precise, personalized fit.
Once your custom orthotics are ready, your podiatrist will review how to wear them comfortably and make any necessary adjustments. Our goal is to provide a supportive, personalized experience focused on improving comfort and supporting long-term foot and ankle health.
