What are prescription orthotics?
Prescription orthotics are medical devices that are custom made to correct your specific foot imbalance. Orthotics work on the feet in the same way braces work on the teeth by exerting gentle consistent pressure to bring foot muscles and bones back into proper alignment. They fit comfortably in shoes and are usually made of flexible molded thermoplastic. The devices are always made from custom precise impressions taken of your feet and a through biomechanical gait analysis performed by a qualified professional.
