Certified Pedorthist

Certified Pedorthist

A certified Pedorthist is a specialist trained in the assessment, design, manufacture, and modification of foot orthotics and footwear.

Foot orthotics and shoe modifications ease pain in the foot that can affect the ankle, knee, hip and lower back.

Custom Foot Orthotics

The purpose of foot orthotics is to alleviate pain in the body that originates from the foot. Foot pain can have effects on the ankle, knee, hip and lower back.

Our certified Pedorthist can evaluate the cause of your pain by performing an extensive history and physical examination to your foot, ankle, knee and hip as well as watching you walk. The correct orthotic device will then be designed specifically for you and the types of shoes that you wear. After dispensing your orthotics we have a comprehensive follow up program to ensure that the device is doing the job that it was designed to do.

Compression Stockings and Socks

Leg problems are widespread throughout the world and millions of people both male and female have varicose veins, according to the Vascular Disease Foundation. Studies show that 33% of women and 17% of men have venous problems.

If you have tired, aching, swollen legs, or if you see the beginning of varicose veins, compression hosiery may be able to help you feel better and stop further progression. Venous circulation problems can progressively worsen over time and can affect your health and quality of life.

Symptoms of Venous Disorders

  • Heavy, tired, aching legs
  • Initial signs of varicose veins
  • A feeling of tension, cramps, or fatigue in your legs
  • Swollen ankles/feet
  • Spider veins
  • Skin discoloration or problems
  • Leg ulcers

Your examination includes a comprehensive history and examination followed by a custom fitting and selection of the correct garment to assist you with your condition.
