At Arches Footcare, we make you one of a kind, custom-made foot orthoses, individual just like your feet! They take time to make, and cost more than the off the shelf type, but they are designed and then manufactured uniquely for YOUR foot and to alleviate your unique foot issues. Ours are so unique to your feet that the left and right orthosis are even different from each other! We use brand new technology from Germany, and combine multi-density materials all shaped and created to support and cushion your aching feet.
Three steps to custom-made orthoses:
1. See a Physician/Podiatrist if you have medical issues. The physician/Podiatrist will give you a diagnosis and a prescription. Make an appointment with our Certified Pedorthist. This first appointment is your assessment and takes 30 minutes to one hour (more on that below). This appointment costs $45. If you do not have a prescription we may be able to request one for you. A down-payment of $85 is required for us to begin creating your custom orthoses.
2. In 2-4 weeks we will call you for your dispense appointment. This appointment is no charge and takes 15-30 minutes. We will be putting the finishing touches on your custom orthoses and making sure they fit in your shoes. The remaining amount for your custom made orthotics is due at this time: $530 You may use an FSA or health savings account for custom orthoses purchases and down payments.
3. It can take up to 30 days to get used to your new custom-made orthoses. If you require a follow up give us a call and we will gladly make one follow-up appointment with our Pedorthist at no additional charge, and that includes any modifications he makes after re-evaluating your situation. Any changes are made the same day, right here in our lab!
