What Are Orthotics?<\/h3>\n

Custom-made orthotics are medical shoe inserts that support and gently reposition the heel, arch, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and bones in the feet. With custom orthotics our foot doctors in New York City, and Whitestone New York can enable the structures in the foot to work together as nature intended, making each step pain-free.<\/p>\n

Unlike over-the-counter shoe inserts, custom-made orthotics in New York City, and Whitestone New York are created from non-weight bearing molds of your feet. These devices are designed to meet your specific needs, and are typically made with comfortable materials that are very durable, and can be designed to fit in any type of shoe.<\/p>\n

Purpose of Custom Orthotics for Whitestone, NY and New York, NY Patients<\/h3>\n

Custom-made orthotics have been shown to help alleviate and relieve pain caused by the following common foot conditions:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Plantar fasciitis<\/li>\n
  • Arch pain<\/li>\n
  • Diabetes-related pain<\/li>\n
  • Bunions<\/li>\n
  • Hammer toe<\/li>\n
  • Corns & calluses<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    In addition to relieving pain and reducing inflammation, custom orthotics help control alignment and function of the foot. This helps treat and prevent injuries caused by sharp or excessive movement during physical activity. Custom orthotics also help to make activities like running and walking more efficient by improving the structure of the foot.<\/p>\n

    How Do Custom Orthotics Work?<\/h3>\n

    The root cause of most foot problems can be attributed to poor foot structure. Even the smallest misalignment in the foot can cause significant pain or discomfort. Misalignment in the foot usually causes foot conditions like bunions, corns, hammer toe, etc. If you suffer from these conditions, custom-made orthotics from New York City, and Whitestone New York foot doctors, Dr. Gary Evans and Dr. James Korponay, are recommended to pad and protect the foot.<\/p>\n

    Orthotics function to not only support the arch, but also realign the structures of the foot. By doing so, custom orthotics improve the structure of the foot and help prevent bone misalignment, as well as tendon and ligament fatigue. As your foot strikes the ground, orthotics within the shoe gently direct the structure into the correct position so as to reduce pain and stop inflammation.<\/p>\n

    How Are Orthotics Made?<\/h3>\n

    Following a physical exam and diagnosis of the condition, your podiatrist in New York City, and Whitestone New York may recommend orthotics as part of the treatment plan. There are several methods that can be used to cast a mold or create an image of your foot\u2014from computer guided and laser imaging to just a normal cast. Once the image or cast has been taken, they are usually sent to a medical lab to be created.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":136,"template":"","yoast_head":"\nCustom Orthotics in Manhattan & Whitestone, NY | Dr. Gary Evans, DPM<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Do you need custom orthotics for your feet?
