Mon-Fri 9am - 5pm All credit card, Check Description: Many people come to my office complaining of foot pain from conditions such as bunions, hammertoes, a pinched nerve (neuroma), or heel pain (plantar fasciitis). I perform a thorough evaluation and examination, and together we review the origin, mechanics, and treatment plan for the specific problem or issue. The patient usually asks if they need an orthotic and, if so, which type would be best. Foot orthotics provide biomechanical control and stabilization to prevent overuse injuries like shin splints, foot pain and knee pain. They also optimize your performance by making each step more efficient; less wear and tear on your feet, bones and shoes. Upper extremity orthoses are devices applied externally to restore or improve certain functional and structural characteristics of the musculoskeletal and nervous systems.
