Benefits of Custom Orthotics for Foot Pain Relief
- Relief from Foot Pain and Plantar Fasciitis: Highlight how custom orthotics provide cushioning and arch support to ease pain in the feet and heels, helping conditions like plantar fasciitis and heel spurs. Emphasize foot pain relief as a primary benefit.
- Improved Alignment & Posture: Explain that by correcting foot alignment, orthotics reduce strain on ankles, knees, hips, and the lower back. This can improve overall posture and alleviate related pain (for example, knee or back pain stemming from poor foot mechanics).
- Enhanced Comfort & Mobility: Point out that with better support, patients can walk or stand for longer periods with less fatigue. Daily activities and sports become more comfortable, improving mobility and quality of life.
- Injury Prevention:
Note that proper foot support can help prevent future injuries. By stabilizing the feet, custom orthotics may avert issues like shin splints or tendonitis and stop minor problems from worsening.
Who Can Benefit from Custom Orthotics?
- Chronic Foot Pain Sufferers: Individuals with ongoing foot or heel pain (such as those with plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, or arthritis) can find relief through custom orthotics.
- People with Foot Abnormalities: Those with flat feet, high arches, or gait abnormalities (uneven stride) often benefit because orthotics are tailored to correct these issues.
- Athletes & Active Individuals: Runners, hikers, and athletes use custom orthotics to improve performance and reduce injury risk by stabilizing their foot mechanics. (E.g., orthotics can help runners with knee pain or shin splints by correcting their foot alignment.)
- Workers on Their Feet: Anyone who stands or walks for many hours (nurses, retail workers, etc.) and experiences foot, leg, or lower back pain can use orthotics to add support and comfort throughout the day.

Frequently Asked Questions about Custom Orthotics
What are custom orthotics and how do they differ from over-the-counter insoles?
Custom orthotics are prescription medical shoe inserts tailored to your feet’s exact needs. Unlike generic drugstore insoles, they are created from molds or scans of your feet and address specific issues (such as unequal leg length, high arches, etc.). This means they can provide more effective relief for foot pain and postural problems than off-the-shelf pads.
How do I know if I need custom orthotics?
If you experience recurring foot pain, heel pain, or issues like shin splints, knee or lower back pain, you might benefit from orthotics. Often, these pains are signs of underlying foot alignment problems. At Oak Bay Chiro, we offer an orthotic assessment (including gait analysis) to determine if your pain is due to foot mechanics and if custom orthotics would help.
Will custom orthotics help with plantar fasciitis or flat feet?
Yes, custom orthotics are a common treatment for plantar fasciitis, flat feet, and similar conditions. They provide the specific arch support or heel cushioning needed to alleviate strain on the plantar fascia and can correct the overpronation often seen in flat feet. Many patients with these conditions experience significant relief when using orthotics regularly.
Are custom orthotics covered by insurance?
Many extended health insurance plans do cover custom orthotics (often one pair per year), but it typically requires a prescription and proper documentation. We encourage you to check your plan’s details. Oak Bay Chiro will provide the needed paperwork (and can direct bill in many cases), making it easier for you to get reimbursed.
How long do custom orthotics last?
On average, custom orthotics last 1-3 years, depending on usage and how well they’re maintained. Their lifespan can vary – for someone very active or on their feet all day, the inserts might wear out closer to a year, whereas occasional users might get closer to 2-3 years. We will advise you on signs of wear to watch for, and we offer check-ups to see if your orthotics need refurbishing or replacing.
Do I need a doctor’s note or referral to get custom orthotics at Oak Bay Chiro?
No referral is needed to have an orthotic assessment with us – you can book directly. However, for insurance coverage, many plans require a prescription from a medical doctor or authorized practitioner. Our chiropractors can evaluate you and provide the necessary documentation for your physician if a script is required for your claim.
