Orthotics are a great way to help with issues related to walking and alignment. Some of these include but are not limited to knee, foot and lower back pain. The need for orthotics is often related to an issue with the natural functioning of the foot. Orthotics will often help to realign the bones within the foot and ankle and therefore take pressure of other parts of the body such as the back, neck, shoulders and hips. In addition, orthotics will help with distributing your weight properly and take further pressure off of toes, bunions and other parts of the foot.

Orthotics are really for anyone with an issue or discomfort relating to walking or imbalances in the body that are known to cause related pain. The great benefit of orthotics is that they can be worn on a daily basis and be utilized during most activities to take further stress of the body.

Orthotics can often be prescribed by your chiropractor and can last well over a year in most cases. This is a great investment into your overall health and well being via a biomechanical standpoint.

Dr. Smith relates the story of a gentleman that had seen two neurosurgeons for lower back pain, that was progressively getting worse. He had spent $3,000 out of pocket on diagnostic studies and office visits. He came to Dr. Smith as a "last resort" (that happens a lot!), once evluated, Dr. Smith prescribed foot orthotics because his "feet had gone flat" (pes planus) and the ankles were rotated inwardly (pronated).  He was prescribed foot orthotics and once they arrived along with re-aligning the rotated and fixated vertebrae, he noted so much relief, Dr. Smith says, " he had tears in his eyes," because of the relief.
