Spending long hours on your feet can lead to several issues, from foot pain and fatigue to more serious conditions like plantar fasciitis, shin splints, and joint discomfort in the knees, hips, and lower back. Constant standing and walking place stress on the feet and lower body, increasing the risk of muscle strain, joint misalignment, and poor posture over time. Custom orthotics offer a solution by providing targeted support and cushioning to reduce these risks. By redistributing pressure more evenly across the feet and enhancing arch support, orthotics help maintain proper alignment, reducing strain on the entire lower body. They also absorb shock, which minimizes the impact on joints, helping to prevent pain and injury. If you work on your feet and experience foot discomfort it is suggested that you schedule an appointment with a podiatrist to learn how custom orthotics can improve your comfort, support, and long-term physical health.
