Striving for Excellence in Healthcare—One Foot at a Time!

If foot or ankle pain is slowing you down, the solution may not be surgery or medication—it might be something as simple and effective as custom orthotics. At Central Foot and Ankle Center, we’ve helped over 72,000 patients and performed more than 10,000 surgeries, but our approach always starts with the most conservative, effective treatment first.

Whether you're dealing with flat feet, plantar fasciitis, bunions, or ankle instability, custom orthotics can make a significant difference in your mobility, posture, and daily comfort.

What Are Custom Orthotics?

Custom orthotics are medical-grade shoe inserts made specifically for the shape of your feet. Unlike over-the-counter insoles, custom orthotics are designed based on detailed scans and assessments of your foot structure, gait, and pressure points.

They can help correct alignment issues, support arches, relieve pressure, and absorb shock—helping your body move more naturally and with less strain.

Conditions That Custom Orthotics Can Help Treat

  • Plantar Fasciitis: Helps relieve heel pain by reducing strain on the plantar fascia.

  • Flat Feet or High Arches: Offers the support your foot needs to function efficiently.

  • Bunions & Hammertoes: Redistributes pressure away from painful deformities.

  • Arthritis: Improves stability and decreases joint stress.

  • Ankle Pain & Instability: Enhances balance and alignment to prevent further injury.

  • Diabetic Foot Concerns: Reduces risk of ulcers and pressure points.

  • Shin Splints & Tendonitis: Minimizes muscle fatigue and inflammation during movement.

Why Custom Orthotics Work

Your feet are the foundation of your entire musculoskeletal system. When that foundation is off, it can lead to pain not just in your feet and ankles, but also your knees, hips, and lower back. Custom orthotics restore balance by properly distributing your body weight and supporting proper alignment, which can help relieve pain and prevent future issues.
