What Conditions and Ailments Can Be Treated By Orthotics?

At Big Rock, Our Chiropractors are able to design and prescribe Orthotics to help you with your foot or gait problems. Using their training and experience, in concert with our modalities offered at Big Rock, we are confident we can find a solution to have your feet feeling amazing and posture / balance on point! Below is a list of some (but not all) types of conditions or injuries we treat

  • Achilles Tendonitis

  • Metatarsalgia (Pain In Ball of Foot)

  • Diabetic Foot Ulcers

  • Arthritis

  • Shin Splints

  • Plantar Fasciitis

  • Flat Feet (Pes Planus)

  • High Arches (Pes Cavus)

  • Bunions

How Do We Design & Fit Custom Orthotics?

Our chiropractors will take a measured approach with your pain or issue, first by assessing your bodies alignment and posture. We do not always prescribe orthotics! In cases where they are not needed, we will use alternative treatments like chiro, physio, and massage to fix the problem.

If orthotics are key to resolving your issue, we will take custom measurements of your foot, and implement whatever biomechanical fix is required in the orthotics to treat you.
