CUSTOM-MOLDED ORTHOTICS IN CHARLOTTE, NC

Patients Get Relief from Foot Pain with Custom-Fit Orthotics

custom molden orthodontics in charlotte ncA clinical evaluation must be performed by our foot and ankle specialist to determine which type of orthotics in Charlotte, NC, can best help address your particular needs, including assessing the types of shoes you normally wear. Below are some of the commonly prescribed custom-molded orthotics you’ll find at Charlotte Foot Care Associates…
 

  • Accommodating Orthotics – This type of orthotic is among the most commonly used. Using special padding to support your foot structure, these orthotics help to “accommodate” a specific area of your foot to relieve pressure-causing pain.
  • Functional Orthotics – Functional orthotics use a specific biomechanical application to influence the motion of the foot as well as to shift the forces acting on the foot for improved alignment.
  • Functional-Hybrid Orthotics – When a blend of both accommodating and functional orthotics is necessary for your unique foot structure, Dr. Lu will prescribe functional-hybrid orthotics. Functional-hybrid orthotics may be the best fit for your specific lifestyle, such as needing to stand for prolonged periods at work, or while playing sports.

Once we determine what type of orthotics in Charlotte, NC, you need, a custom molded cast will be used to fabricate your custom-made orthotics. Once you receive your customized orthotics, our podiatrist will provide necessary wearing instruction, and schedule a follow-up appointment to evaluate your treatment progress. At that time, we can make any necessary changes or adjustments to the orthotics in an effort to increase your level of comfort.
