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.
Custom Plaster Casted Orthotics
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.

Compression socks- Feel the Relief: Your Guide to Compression Socks
Tired of achy, swollen legs? At Step by Step Footcare, we know that heavy, painful legs are more than just a nuisance—they impact your life. That’s why we offer professional guidance on medical-grade compression socks, a simple yet powerful solution for a variety of common foot and leg issues.
What are the Benefits of Compression Socks?
Compression socks are specialized stockings that use gentle pressure to improve blood flow, reduce swelling, and alleviate discomfort. They work by supporting your veins and helping your body circulate blood back to your heart.
You could benefit from compression socks if you experience:
- Swollen legs or feet
- Achy, tired, or heavy legs
- Calf cramps or pain
- Visible veins (like spider or varicose veins)
- Discomfort from standing or sitting for long periods
- Symptoms related to diabetes or pregnancy
Beyond just symptom relief, wearing compression socks can actively prevent the progression of venous disorders and help manage conditions like Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and chronic issues.
How We Help: Expert Care, Perfect Fit
Choosing the right compression sock is crucial for effectiveness. A simple sock from a drugstore won’t provide the same therapeutic benefits as a professionally fitted, medical-grade garment.
At Step by Step Footcare, our Chiropodists will:
- Assess Your Needs: We’ll perform a thorough evaluation of your condition to understand your needs.
- Recommend the Right Solution: We’ll help you determine the specific style of stocking you need.
- Ensure a Perfect Fit: Our team will professionally measure you to ensure your compression socks are comfortable and effective.
