What makes custom orthotics better than shoe inserts I can buy at the drugstore?
Compared to store-bought shoe inserts, custom orthotics have many benefits. First of all, because they are customized for each patient, they are far more successful in addressing the ailment the patient is dealing with. Professional orthotics are far more pleasant thanks to custom fitting and design, and because the materials are much more durable, they end up being a more cost-effective investment over time. The cost of custom orthotics is frequently fully or partially covered by insurance, which lowers their price even further. Commercially produced shoe insoles available in stores are created for the “masses,” taking into account neither the unique foot shape of each patient nor the underlying problems that may be causing their complaints. As a result, they do nothing to alleviate symptoms over the long run and may even make some issues worse. They also require frequent replacement because they are constructed of considerably flimsier materials that break down and flatten out quickly.
