Custom Foot Orthotics by Foot Levelers™ While
it is true that chiropractic spinal and cranial care is an integral part of your
overall health and well being, many times other biomechanical stresses in your
skeletal system can sabotage the balance we are trying to achieve.
This is especially true of the human foot.
Fallen arches (flat feet), pronation and other abnormalities will cause
you to improperly carry the weight of your body.
This translates to faulty ankle, knee, hip and pelvic mechanics thereby
creating overall skeletal misalignments and stress.
In many cases, the subluxations we are trying to correct in your spine
will not “stay” because your foundation is tilted.
Just like a building, if the base is not supporting what is above it, the
whole structure will lean and give in to the effects of gravity.
Our
office uses the State of the Art Associate™ Computerized Digital Scanner by
Foot Levelers™. This scanner
takes
precise measurements of your arches and feet.
This information, along with an examination performed in our office, is
then sent electronically to Foot Levelers™ for your custom order.
Unlike hard plastic, uncomfortable orthotics costing $375.00 to $500.00
or more sold by most podiatrist and shoe stores, these shoe inserts are made of
a lightweight cushioning material. They
absorb the daily stress you put on your feet while still supporting your arches
comfortably. The bottom is made from
leather so they are durable and long lasting.
The cost varies depending on the style and there are discounts available
for multiple orders. Approximate
cost is in the range of $220 to $300. Different
styles are available for a wide variety of shoes and lifestyles.
From individuals with sensitive, arthritic feet to the competitive
athlete or for those that require support at work in dress shoes or work boots,
Foot Levelers™ has an insert for you. Their
1 year guarantee (2 years on their Elite line) also means that there is no risk
to you in the event that you are not completely satisfied with them.
If you are interested in orthotics and setting up an exam, please print out and complete the following questionnaire and return it by fax or mail or you can drop it off in person. The digital scan and exam takes about 15 minutes and cost only $30.00.
