As a devoted podiatrist practicing at the Maryland Gout Institute located in Reisterstown, MD, I often educate my patients about the significance of foot health in alleviating and preventing a variety of medical concerns. Among the most promising solutions we provide to our patients are custom orthotics.
What are Custom Orthotics?
Custom orthotics are specialized shoe or heel inserts, prescribed by a podiatrist and crafted precisely to match your feet. They work by balancing out the irregular biomechanical flaws in your feet and ankles enhancing comfort, improving function, and preventing a myriad of potential foot complications including gout, a form of arthritis that can cause severe pain and discomfort.
Why Choose Custom Orthotics?
Unlike the over-the-counter inserts, custom orthotics are prepared from a precise imprint of your foot and customized to meet your unique foot structure and individual needs. This personalization makes them a more effective solution, tailored to provide the exact support that your feet need.
Benefits of Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics offer a multitude of benefits, including relieving foot pain, aligning the foot and ankle into an optimal position, improving overall foot function, and even preventing or reducing the risk of future foot deformities or deterioration.
