Custom orthotics are an effective intervention for a wide range of conditions, including:
Our custom orthotics are designed to treat a range of conditions, including:
Custom orthotics are beneficial for a wide range of people, not just those with existing foot conditions. Athletes use them to improve performance and reduce injury risk. People who spend long hours on their feet, such as healthcare workers, retail staff, and tradespeople, use them to prevent fatigue and joint wear. Older adults benefit from the added stability and alignment support that helps maintain mobility and reduce fall risk. Even children with developing feet can benefit from pediatric orthotics that guide proper growth and gait patterns.
Custom orthotics are prescription medical devices inserted into your footwear to correct the way your feet contact the ground, control abnormal foot motion, and redistribute pressure away from painful areas. Unlike generic shoe insoles purchased at a pharmacy, custom orthotics are manufactured from a precise 3D scan of your specific foot, which means they address your unique biomechanics, not a generic foot shape.
At Atlas Spine Clinic in Scarborough, we provide custom orthotics as part of a comprehensive approach to musculoskeletal health. Foot alignment affects everything above it, including your ankles, knees, hips, and lower back. Many patients who come to us with chronic knee or lower back pain discover that a biomechanical issue in their feet is a contributing factor. With custom orthotics, we address the problem at its source.
We prescribe a range of orthotic devices depending on your lifestyle and condition:
Store-bought insoles are made for a generic foot shape and provide only general cushioning or arch support. Custom orthotics are fabricated from a precise scan of your foot and built to a clinician’s prescription. They correct specific biomechanical issues and are significantly more effective for conditions like plantar fasciitis, overpronation, and chronic lower limb pain.
Yes, in most cases. The majority of employer-sponsored extended health benefit plans in Ontario cover custom orthotics, typically between $200 and $500 per pair. A prescription from a qualified clinician and a detailed receipt are required for reimbursement, and we provide all necessary documentation.
With regular use, most custom orthotics last 2 to 5 years. Factors like your body weight, activity level, and the type of orthotic affect longevity. We recommend reassessment if your condition changes significantly or the orthotics no longer feel supportive.
Most patients adapt within one to two weeks. We recommend starting with a few hours per day and gradually increasing wear time. Some mild initial discomfort is normal, similar to breaking in supportive shoes. If discomfort continues beyond the first week, we can make adjustments at no extra charge.
Yes. Overpronation, leg length discrepancy, and poor foot mechanics can alter your pelvic alignment and stress the lumbar spine. Orthotics that correct these patterns can reduce lower back strain, especially when combined with chiropractic care or physiotherapy.
No referral is needed to book with us. Some insurance plans require a prescription from a specific regulated professional such as a chiropractor, physiotherapist, or podiatrist, and our clinicians are qualified to issue orthotics prescriptions for insurance purposes.
