FOOT ORTHOTICS (ARCH SUPPORTS) & ORTHOPEDIC FOOTWEAR

Our Certified Pedorthists are trained in the manufacturing, fitting and modification of foot appliances and footwear for the purposes of alleviating painful or debilitating conditions, and providing assistance for abnormalities or limited actions of the lower limb.

We provide a full biomechanical assessment, and all of our foot orthotics are made on – site at our Fredericton office by Certified Pedorthists.

With respect to one's medical condition, a patient might need foot orthotics, custom fitted orthopedic shoes, or custom made shoes.
