Our Process
What goes into making custom orthotics?
A typical orthotic appointment begins with casting. During this process, our orthotic experts will examine your feet, where detailed measurements are taken.
In a sitting position, your foot is cast. This is done with you sitting since your weight can place stress on the feet, providing inaccurate casting.
From there, the cast is sent off to our lab along with details including measurements, materials to be used, and more. At the lab, specialists manufacture your custom orthotics, which are then sent back to our clinic for your pick-up.
When your orthotics are ready, we do a final fitting appointment to ensure your orthotics fit well and feel comfortable.
Rigid Custom Orthotics
Rigid custom orthotics help absorb the shock from your feet, as well as fit your foot’s posture. These types of orthotics are often used in dress or walking shoes for individuals who require orthotics for day-to-day activities.
Soft Custom Orthotics
Soft custom orthotics are best suited for individuals that require orthotics but want a more affordable option. More specifically, soft orthotics can provide cushion, help absorb shock, and enhance balance to help you steer clear of pain. These are not suitable for individuals who need a correction regarding their foot position.
Adaptive Custom Orthotics
These are the most popular type of orthotics and usually, the most comfortable. These types of orthotics can help support proper alignment while maintaining optimal comfort. They also protect your feet and improve function. If you’re searching for orthotics near you, book your appointment today.

Everything is Connected
Everything in the body is connected, which means the body works as a single entity. As such, your foot position or alignment can significantly impact other joints and tissues in your body.
As your feet hit the ground, the shock travels upwards. This can affect your knees, hips, and back. Ultimately, if the feet aren’t properly aligned, you can experience pain in your legs or back — not just your feet.
Properly supporting the feet also means supporting your entire body in the best way possible. Contact our team at Park Place Clinic to find out if orthotics are the right choice for you and your life.
