Orthotics for All Ages: Supporting Healthy Feet From Childhood to Golden Years
Custom orthotics are often seen as a solution for foot pain in adults, but did you know they can benefit people of all ages? Even better, they’re covered by FSA and HSA funds that might not roll over into the next year, so they fit perfectly into plans to spend any “use it or lose it” healthcare reserves you might want to spend before the December 31st deadline arrives.
Speaking of “use it or lose it”: for just a few short weeks, Batavia will be running an exclusive offer for anyone looking to grab a second pair of custom orthotics from us! The offer features:
- A backup pair of custom inserts molded to your exact specifications.
- The ability to swap your orthotics between different pairs of shoes.
- A special rate of just $350.
We don’t want you to look back and wish you’d taken this step. For this post, Batavia Foot Care Center wants to share a little information about all the different ways orthotics can work for you, whatever your age or issue might be!
What are Custom Orthotics?
Custom orthotics are medical devices that are inserted into your shoes to support and gently reposition the heel, arch, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and bones in the feet. These specially designed shoe inserts can address a wide range of foot and ankle issues, from childhood gait abnormalities to age-related foot conditions.
- Unlike over-the-counter shoe inserts, custom orthotics are created from non-weight-bearing molds of your feet, ensuring a perfect fit and targeted support to meet your specific needs.
How Custom Orthotics Work
Most foot problems stem from poor foot structure. Even the smallest misalignment can cause significant pain or discomfort.
- Orthotics not only support the arch but also realign the structures of the foot.
- By doing so, they improve foot structure and help prevent bone misalignment, as well as tendon and ligament fatigue.
Pediatric Patients: Growing Pains and Gait Abnormalities
In children, orthotics can help address flat feet, in-toeing, out-toeing, and heel pain. Early intervention with orthotics can help prevent problems from worsening and ensure proper foot development.
Adults: Managing Pain and Preventing Injuries
For adults, orthotics can be beneficial for:
Seniors: Maintaining Mobility and Independence
As we age, our feet undergo changes that can affect our balance and mobility. Orthotics can help seniors reduce pain, improve balance, and maintain movement.
How We Use Them
Our team has been proudly employing the latest 3D scanning technology to generate digital models of feet and ankles for some time. This not only ensures our patients receive the very best fitting custom orthotics, but it also expedites the fabrication and delivery process of your prescription foot orthotic.
The Bottom Line
You’re just a phone call away from ensuring every pair of shoes in your closet offers the same remarkable relief. No more orthotic shuffle, no more compromising. Whether it’s the exact pair you love or a slimmed-down version for a sleeker fit, we’re ready to make it happen! Remember: Batavia’s exclusive offer only applies to your second pair from us, and it won’t last forever!
