Foot orthoses (also known as “orthotics”) are custom foot supports. They are designed to fit your feet more efficiently than over the counter (OTC) arch supports and correct any biomechanical imbalances between your feet and legs.
Custom orthotic foot braces are corrective devices made to assist a foot that fails biomechanically, to function normally. The orthotics are made to control abnormal foot function, re-establish proper weight distribution and improve overall biomechanics.

At Step by Step Footcare, we believe in a professional, no-shortcuts approach to pain relief. Our process for custom orthotics is meticulous and designed for your specific needs.
- Comprehensive Foot Assessment: It all begins with a detailed biomechanical evaluation. Our chiropodist will perform a thorough exam, including a medical history and a gait analysis to understand how you walk. We’ll also consider your lifestyle, activities, and even your footwear to get the full picture of your unique needs. This isn’t just a quick check; it’s the foundation for a truly custom solution.
- Personalized Treatment Plan: Based on your assessment, we develop a custom orthotic management plan just for you. We take a precise, 3D cast of your feet in their optimal, non-weight-bearing position—ensuring the highest level of accuracy for your custom orthotics.
- Expert Craftsmanship: Your foot casts and our clinical prescription go to a professional lab where expert technicians handcraft your orthotics from durable, high-impact materials. We ensure every detail is tailored to your specific needs, delivering a perfect fit that generic orthotics simply can’t match.
- Optimal Alignment & Comfort: Once your custom orthotics are ready, we’ll guide you through a simple break-in period. Soon, you’ll experience the life-changing benefits of proper foot and body alignment. Say goodbye to pain and hello to a life where every step is comfortable and supported.
The result? A custom orthotic that fits perfectly, providing the support you need to alleviate pain and optimize your biomechanics. While there may be a short break-in period, the long-term relief and improved quality of life will make you wonder how you ever walked without them.
