Orthotics   are designed to maintain “normal” foot position so that the foot can function   properly and pain free. Orthotics improve shock absorption, which helps   prevent injuries throughout the body and correct mal-alignment issues. At UP   Physical Therapy you will be thoroughly assessed by one of our licensed   physical therapists who have advanced training in bio-mechanical evaluation   consisting of: a FootDisc screen, and a static and dynamic assessment of your   spine, pelvis, hips, knees, ankles, and feet. Our therapists will correlate   the findings of this assessment with the demands of your lifestyle and shoe   wear to help decide if a custom orthotic is recommended. Orthotics helps   anyone with lower extremity pain, ankle/foot/knee/low back pain, plantar fasciitis,   and flat feet.
