Custom Orthotics in Las Vegas, Nevada

Two people can wear the same shoe and have completely different feet. That’s the whole idea behind custom orthotics: support built for your foot, not an average one. Eastern Podiatry designs prescription orthotics in Las Vegas to relieve pain and correct the mechanics behind it.

What are orthotics

Orthotics are corrective devices for the foot and ankle. They resemble ordinary insoles, but instead of generic padding they’re molded to the exact shape of your foot. Done right, they restore proper alignment, support circulation and comfort, and take the strain off the structures that are causing you pain.

Who benefits from them

Our team recommends orthotics for a wide range of problems, including:

• Heel and ankle pain
• Arch pain
• Leg pain
• Heel spurs
• Plantar fasciitis
• Bunions

If any of these sound familiar, ask us whether orthotics belong in your treatment plan.

How they work and how they’re made

Orthotics gently guide your feet back toward a proper position. If your foot rolls inward, for instance, they help it face forward and distribute weight more evenly. Because they’re built to your foot, they feel natural; expect a short adjustment period, but not a painful one. At your appointment, your podiatrist uses imaging to map the shape and pressure points of your foot, and that map is used to fabricate a device made for you alone. They can be built for nearly any shoe, from athletic to work.

How long they last

With reasonable care, orthotics can last up to 10 years and rarely need adjustment. Your doctor may still suggest periodic check-ups, and if pain persists despite the orthotics, that’s a signal to adjust them or reconsider the approach.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are custom orthotics different from drugstore insoles?

Store insoles are mass-produced for an average foot and mostly add cushioning. Custom orthotics are prescription devices molded to your foot to correct alignment and treat a specific problem.

Does insurance cover them?

It varies by plan. Our office can check your benefits and explain any costs before you decide.

How long until they feel normal?

Most people adjust within a few days to two weeks. Easing into them helps your feet adapt comfortably.

Can orthotics fix flat feet or high arches?

They can’t change your bone structure, but they support and reposition the foot to relieve the pain and strain those arch types cause.
