Custom orthotics work by supporting the unique shape and mechanics of your feet to improve alignment, reduce pressure, and relieve pain. At Foot Direct Club, we use your foot impressions to design orthotics
that match your exact arch, gait, and pressure points. This personalized support helps correct imbalances, absorb shock, and prevent strain on your feet, ankles, knees, and back. Whether you’re standing all day, recovering from injury, or just looking for better comfort—custom orthotics help your body move more naturally and
comfortably.

Custom orthotics can benefit anyone looking for better foot support,
but they’re especially helpful for people who:

• Suffer from foot pain –
including plantar fasciitis, heel pain, arch pain, or ball-of-foot
pain

• Have flat feet or high arches –
and need better alignment and shock absorption

• Stand or walk for long periods –
including healthcare workers, retail staff, and teachers

• Are active or athletic – and
want to reduce stress on joints and prevent injuries

• Have diabetes or arthritis –
and need extra cushioning and protection for sensitive feet

• Experience knee, hip, or back
pain – which can sometimes be linked to poor foot alignment

• Want more comfort in everyday
shoes – even without a specific condition

Because they’re custom-made to
your foot shape, orthotics from Foot Direct Club provide personalized
support that off-the-shelf insoles just can’t match.

• Custom orthotics can help relieve pain and improve mobility for a
wide range of foot and lower-body conditions, including:

• Plantar Fasciitis – reduces
heel pain by supporting the arch and absorbing shock

• Flat Feet or Fallen Arches –
provides structure and promotes proper alignment

• High Arches – cushions
pressure points and improves weight distribution

• Overpronation or Supination –
corrects foot mechanics and gait issues

• Heel Spurs – adds cushioning
and reduces pressure on the heel

• Metatarsalgia (Ball-of-Foot
Pain) – redistributes pressure to relieve pain

• Shin Splints – improves
alignment to reduce stress on the lower leg

• Achilles Tendonitis – supports
the heel and reduces strain on the tendon

• Bunions & Hammertoes –
improves foot positioning to ease pressure

• Knee, Hip, or Lower Back Pain –
often caused by poor foot alignment

Orthotics are also commonly
recommended for people with diabetes, arthritis, or neuropathy to
help prevent pressure sores and improve stability.

Over-the-counter (OTC) insoles are made for the masses—they offer
general cushioning and support but aren't designed for your unique
feet. Custom orthotics from Foot Direct Club are built specifically
for your foot shape, arch type, and walking style using a detailed
impression of your feet.
