PRODUCTION OF CUSTOM ORTHOTICS
The creation of Customized orthotics is an demanding procedure and determines whether or not you obtain top quality devices that will best handle your situation. As with almost everything, there are well-made orthotics and poorly-made orthotics . The ability of an orthotic device to get rid of your pain is
centered on the quality of the orthotics.

The quality of the orthotics is dependent on 3 major steps:
• The cast of your feet
• The prescription the foot doctor writes (based on the evaluation and the foot doctors understanding and experience)
• The work of the orthotic lab in generating your orthotics and following the foot doctor’s prescription

What is Required In Generating Custom Foot Orthotics?
The most crucial factor in developing foot orthotics that will supply the best possible function is an orthotic prescription dependent on a thorough assessment by an experienced and well-informed medical practitioner. We cannot stress this enough. The examination should include a complete biomechanical examination and gait evaluation.

Following a biomechanical and gait assessment, there are 3 essential elements to ensure you obtain the best possible orthotic devices:
• An accurate cast of your foot must be taken. This is an Extremely exacting procedure as your foot must be placed in a precise position to ensure the best clinical outcomes. To help make certain that a proper cast is taken, we feel that the doctor, and not a technician, should take the cast of your foot.
• A proper prescription must be created to support your biomechanical problems, your activities, and your shoes. This procedure demands that an exacting gait analysis and biomechanical examination be performed.
• A high-quality foot orthotics laboratory should be used to produce your orthotics. This will ensure that the prescription is filled correctly, that the orthotics are comfortable, and that high-quality and long lasting materials are used.

Dispensing and Break-in
Your foot doctor should work with you to make certain that your orthotics are secure and are relieving your symptoms. They should also provide you with detailed information on the proper shoes for your feet. This will help you find appropriate, comfortable, and fashionable shoes.

Follow-up:
One of the most important parts of orthotic therapy is appropriate follow-up. If you have a problem with orthotic fit, function, comfort, shoe fit or any other issue, your doctor must be able to diagnose and correct these concerns. This is why a skilled, knowledgeable and experienced practitioner can usually provide the best clinical outcomes.
