Custom orthotics at D+A Wellness Centre are designed to support your feet, improve alignment, and reduce pain throughout your body. Our chiropractor provides comprehensive assessments and custom-fit orthotics in Downtown Ottawa, serving Sandy Hill and surrounding areas.
Whether you’re dealing with persistent discomfort or looking to improve movement and performance, custom orthotics can play a key role in your overall care.
What are Custom Orthotics?
Custom orthotics are medical-grade inserts designed specifically for your feet. Unlike over-the-counter insoles, they are built based on a detailed biomechanical assessment to correct imbalances and improve how forces move through your body.
By optimizing foot function, orthotics can help reduce strain on joints, muscles, and connective tissues.
