Orthotics is a modality used to place in
your shoes, which help align the body for weight bearing
activities. Anytime we take a step while walking,
jogging, running, or sprinting, a reaction happens
between the ground and the foot. At times due to
congenital defects, trauma, over weight, pregnancy, over
– use syndromes either from work or sports and or the
uneven terrain we play and work on can cause foot
problems. Research claims that feet not properly aligned
incorrect shoes and shoe size cause of many problems we
see about the foot, knee, hip and back. IFSI is
qualified to provide an intervention to address these
issues, but also prevent while giving optimum comfort
for our patrons who come into our office with a lower
limb and back problem.
There are many products on the market
that can be bought in the local stores, but is it the
"right" one for your feet. Remember in a store you get
an "equal" pair that may not fit your "unequal" feet nor
fix your malalignment that is causing the problem.
IFSI offers a comprehensive examination
where we look, measure, assess and find the "right" fit
orthotic for your feet that is comfortable and
therapeutic for a "healthier first- step" toward
prevention and recovery of an injury. IFSI dispenses a
"custom select" orthotic and or a resilient anti-shock
insert from Apex which we endorse as one of the leaders
in the orthotic industry.
