Why Our Naperville Chiropractor Recommends Orthotics

back pain foot orthoticsOur Naperville chiropractor understands how the musculoskeletal system works, which is why we focus on the feet in addition to the spine. Your feet are the foundation of your body mechanics and they support everything you do. When your feet are supported and able to maintain proper posture, they protect your soft tissue, your spine, and your bones and joints.

If your feet have arch problems, other parts of your foot must compensate. This leads to structural compromises in the whole musculoskeletal system. During a consultation, we will review your musculoskeletal system to find imbalances that can be corrected with chiropractic treatment. We may find a foot arch problem contributes to your back pain.

By fitting you with custom orthotics, we can help your feet support your body and correct these underlying imbalances. Our orthotics will support the corrective chiropractic adjustments, helping your body maintain the correctional alignment for longer periods of time.

Are Foot Orthotics For Me?
We use a digital scan to determine whether our patients need orthotics. We can show you the scan data and tell you where your foot problem is and how orthotics can benefit your particular circumstances. Since we treat each of our patients as unique cases, we do not follow general rules for orthotics.

We will recommend orthotics if we feel they will benefit your healing and support your joint mobility. We can recommend over the counter products or custom orthotics, depending on your needs. During this time we can answer any questions that you have about orthotics and chiropractic care, so you feel confident in your plan of care.
