Support Your Feet, Support Your Health
Are you struggling with foot, knee or lower back pain that won’t go away? You might be dealing with poor alignment or pressure distribution. At Back In Motion Chiropractic & Healthcare, we offer professional orthotics to help address biomechanical issues and support overall musculoskeletal function. Our orthotics are custom-made using advanced scanning and Foot Levelers technology.
Orthotics are designed to correct foot posture, balance your stride, and relieve stress on joints and muscles. Poor foot alignment can lead to discomfort not only in your feet, but also throughout the knees, hips and lower back. Custom orthotics can help by evenly distributing weight and improving how you walk, stand and move.
Benefits of custom orthotics may include:
- Pain relief in feet, knees, hips or back
- Better posture & improved balance
- Increased comfort while walking or standing
- Reduced fatigue & muscle strain
- Support for flat feet, high arches or plantar fasciitis
- Injury prevention & long-term joint protection
Our orthotics are tailored to your unique foot structure and lifestyle. Whether you're active, on your feet all day or recovering from an injury, we’ll help find a solution that fits.
Call us today on 07 4061 2225. Based in Innisfail, we also support surrounding areas including Mission Beach, Tully and Babinda.
What to Expect From Your Fitting
When you book a custom orthotics appointment, we begin with a comprehensive foot and gait assessment. This includes a postural review and 3D foot scan to identify imbalances or irregularities in your step. We’ll explain the results clearly, walk you through your options, and suggest the best orthotic solution for your needs.
Each orthotic is made and designed to fit inside most shoes discreetly and comfortably. Our goal is to provide long-term relief and support—so you can move better every day.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do orthotics do for your feet?
Orthotics are inserts worn inside shoes that support and align the feet. They help correct abnormal walking patterns, reduce strain on muscles and joints, and can relieve pain caused by conditions like plantar fasciitis, flat feet or overpronation. Orthotics improve overall posture and foot function by redistributing pressure more evenly.
How do I know if I need orthotics?
Common signs include frequent foot pain, heel pain, knee pain, or discomfort in the lower back. You may also notice uneven wear on your shoes or experience poor balance and posture. A professional assessment can determine whether orthotics would be beneficial and identify underlying biomechanical issues.
Are custom orthotics better than store-bought ones?
Custom orthotics are made specifically for your feet using detailed measurements and assessments. They offer more accurate support compared to over-the-counter inserts, which are designed for general use. Custom options are particularly helpful for people with chronic pain, structural foot issues, or complex alignment problems.
Can orthotics help with sports injuries?
Yes, orthotics can be valuable in both the treatment and prevention of sports-related injuries. They provide stability, absorb shock and reduce strain on muscles and joints during activity. This can help athletes avoid conditions like shin splints, Achilles tendonitis and runner’s knee, while also improving performance and recovery.
