What to expect!
The goal of custom-made foot orthotics is to alleviate stress and pain of the feet and lower limbs. A certified pedorthist is a health care professional who is trained and certified in the assessment, design, manufacture, fit, and modification of foot orthotics and the fitting and modification of footwear
