Orthotics Tigard, OR
Health From The Ground Up!
Wearing the right footwear is crucial not only for comfort but also for maintaining proper body alignment during physical activities such as walking, running, and jumping. Without adequate support, your feet may fail to maintain alignment, leading to undue stress and fatigue in your major joints and muscles. This can result in pain and diminished performance. To counter this, orthotic devices are often recommended because they are specifically designed to provide the necessary reinforcement to your feet, helping to prevent the discomfort associated with misalignment.
However, not all orthotics are created equal. Many over-the-counter options only support one arch of the foot, which can inadvertently shift pain from one area to another rather than alleviating it. Additionally, these generic orthotics tend to lack durability, leading to frequent replacements and increased costs over time.
To address these challenges, we have integrated Footmaxx’s cutting-edge orthotic products and technology into our practice, extending top-tier support to the communities of Tigard, Portland, and beyond.
The Footmaxx Different
Footmaxx revolutionizes chiropractic care with its unparalleled 3D Metascan technology, an indispensable tool that captures a staggering 150 images per second to precisely analyze foot movement and biomechanical integrity during motion. This advanced device utilizes state-of-the-art proprietary software, enabling chiropractors to conduct in-depth evaluations of balance, gait, and potential injuries to the foot, hip, and knee. The Metascan excels in targeting and isolating the eight crucial foot areas—hallux, lateral heel, five metatarsal heads, and medial heel—providing an unrivaled level of detail during the stance phase of the gait. Additionally, its sophisticated pressure sensitivity feature assesses how the foot responds under various conditions, offering insights into symmetry, alignment, and center of mass control. Whether used in motion or static scanning, the Footmaxx Metascan delivers bespoke orthotic solutions with unmatched accuracy, making it a groundbreaking asset in personalized chiropractic care.
Understanding the Need
The feet are the most abused parts of the human body. From regular activities such as walking and running to more intense actions such as dancing and playing sports, the feet consistently absorb the force generated by body weight and gravity combined. Without proper support, your feet will be overwhelmed by the constant stress. This stress will lead to arch pain or plantar fasciitis–a prevalent condition affecting the plantar fascia that can be difficult to treat if not looked after properly.
Your feet are your foundation, and structural imbalances in your feet can lead to issues throughout the body, such as:
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Low back pain
- Knee pain
- Hip pain
- Sciatica
- Achilles Tendinitis
- Drop Foot
- Leg Length Inequality (short leg)
