Orthotics at Active Life Wellness Center
At Active Life Wellness Center, we are committed on keeping you healthy and active. That is why we offer customized orthotics at our facility. Orthotics are external devices – similar to insoles – that are placed in your shoes and are used to improve the well-being, balance and function of patients.
They also help by proving support, reduce and alleviate pain, and assist with your walking pattern.
Our customized orthotics can be used to treat several conditions, such as:
- Foot Pain
- Flat Feet
- High Arch’s
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Heel Spurs
- Shin Spints
- Diabetes
- Leg length discrepancy
- Metatarsalgia
- Heel Pain
- Knee Pain
- Back Pain
- Bunions and bunionettes
- And Much More!
However, it is important to note that you do not need to have pain in the above areas to have orthotics. Orthotics can help manage, maintain and control proper alignment of your entire body – especially if you’re on your feet all day!
Why Choose Us for your Customized Orthotics:
When you come to Active Life Wellness Center for your orthotics, Dr. Sodhi takes his time to assess your body’s overall alignment. He ensures that he is taking an accurate computerized scan of your walking pattern and addressing any concerns that you have.
