Doing Holiday Shopping? Gift Your Feet Better Gait

Holiday shopping is here, and whether you’re fresh off a Cyber Week spending spree or still sore from Black Friday, you’re surely not done yet! Here’s a gentle reminder from Batavia Foot Care Center: As you consider which gifts to give your loved ones, consider a similar act of generosity for two very close friends.

We’re referring, of course, to your feet.

For this post, we’ll be talking about some serious benefits provided by custom orthotics and braces. Read on to learn how these innovative devices can save you pain and enhance the function of your feet!

Our Orthotics Are Unique, Just Like Your Feet

We often hear about unique fingerprints or snowflakes…but feet?

In reality, your feet don’t get enough credit for being as unique as they are. Orthotics take that into account. They’re medical shoe inserts that realign important aspects of your foot’s structure, and we craft them from non-weight-bearing molds designed solely for you.

• Using 3D scanning technology, we generate a digital model of your foot and ankle.
• Durable, supportive material alleviates many conditions: Plantar fasciitis, diabetic pain, bunions, hammer toe, corns, and calluses, to name a few.
• Improved alignment and function follow, meaning less risk of injury during exercise and more efficient movement.
• Inserts support your arches and correct misalignment, reducing fatigue and inflammation.

But What About Braces?

We recommend a variety of leg braces to help control foot and ankle issues. They enhance stability and alignment, so they’ll help manage pain and improve function simultaneously.

• The Arizona AFO brace treats conditions like drop foot and arthritis. By bolstering the ankle, it’ll make daily walking much easier.
• SafeTStep offers braces and shoes. Their designs can work well to assist with diabetic foot complications and general protection.
