Benefits of Custom Orthotics at Reimer Wellness Center in Los Altos, CA

When your feet or back hurt, a common cause is an improper support. Constant foot pain is a good sign that you should look into getting orthotics. Read on to learn the ways to tell if you need custom orthotics at Reimer Wellness Center in Los Altos, CA.

Signs that you Need Orthotics

There are three things to look out for when deciding if you need orthotics:

1. Foot pain. Some people think that foot pain is unavoidable when they walk around a lot. However, no matter how much you walk or run, orthotics will likely reduce or eliminate your foot pain.

2. Swelling. If you do nothing more than basic walking and standing, and your feet are swollen at the end of the day, you probably need orthotics.

3. Imbalanced wearing down of shoes. If one of your shoes is more worn down than the other, you likely have a condition such as Plantar fasciitis that requires orthotics.

Custom vs. Store-Bought Orthotics

If all you have is some minor foot pain or you just want extra comfort, store-bought orthotics may be all you need. However, in most cases, store-bought orthotics are not enough. The orthotics that you get from the store are one-size-fits-all. If you have anything other than normal feet that you need a bit more cushioning for, you need custom orthotics. Custom orthotics will meet the exact needs of your unique feet - even if each foot needs a different kind of support. 

Always see a Los Altos chiropractor to get custom orthotics if you have:

• Flat feet
• High arches
• Bunions
• Inherited foot problems
