Custom Orthotics in Toronto
Custom-made foot orthotics designed to correct your specific biomechanical pattern — overpronation, supination, or asymmetry — using on-site Gait-Scan force-plate technology.

What it is
Biomechanical correction, not arch support.
Custom orthotics are biomechanical medical devices, made to correct your specific foot pattern. Unlike off-the-shelf inserts, they're built from a force-plate scan of your gait — so the correction is tied to how you actually move, not a generic arch shape.
By rerouting and decreasing problem movement through the gait cycle (most often overpronation), orthotics reduce the strain that travels up the kinetic chain to the ankles, knees, hips, and lower back.
- Built from on-site Gait-Scan force-plate analysis
- Targeted at overpronation, supination, asymmetry, and arch collapse
- Reduces strain at the foot, knee, hip, and lower back
What they help
Conditions orthotics support most.
Shin splints, knee & Achilles
Lower-limb overuse from running and standing work — orthotics often pair with shockwave or rehab.
Low back & hip pain
When ankle/foot mechanics drive an upstream load pattern, correction at the foot can change everything above.
What's included
From assessment to fitted pair.
Most orthotics are partially or fully covered by extended health plans — bring your insurance details and we'll confirm before ordering.
- Visual gait observation and arch-height analysis
- Gait-Scan force-plate scan (in-clinic)
- Custom build to your prescription
- Fitting and break-in guidance — wear in 2-hour intervals, build up over ~2 weeks
- Most insurance plans cover custom orthotics
- Direct billing where supported
What to expect
How long they last.
With daily use and proper care, a pair of custom orthotics typically lasts about a year before the correction starts to compress. Many insurance plans cover one new pair per year, which lines up with the lifecycle.
If you notice the symptom they were prescribed for creeping back, that's the signal to be re-scanned and re-issued — not to push them further.
