Orthotics

Here at Nebraska Orthopeadic Hospital, we have a strong background in biomechanics; be it walking, running or playing your favorite sport. This knowledge allows us to understand the function of your foot and to properly fit you with custom orthotics by Sole Supports at a low cost to you. Orthotics are shoe inserts that are intended to correct an abnormal or irregular foot or walking pattern. Many people like to think of orthotics as “arch supports”, yet they are much more functional than that.  Orthotics can help by slightly altering the angles in which the foot strikes the ground in standing, walking and running.  By changing foot angles, the rest of the body can also take a different position, which can ultimately alleviate painful areas of your body. 

By evaluating your feet, along with knowing your activity history, multiple painful areas can benefit from orthotic use. These include, but are not limited to, foot and ankle pain, to knee, hip and back pain. Our therapists can assess your feet and let you know if orthotics can be of benefit for you.

We proudly use Sole Supports at NOH. Let us get you back to working, walking, running and daily activities without pain.
