The Role of Orthotics in Relieving Plantar Fasciitis Symptoms

Foot & Ankle Specialists of Connecticut, with Dr. Joseph Treadwell and Dr. Christian Davis, can help with foot-related health problems that might take you out of commission without their support. For example, they can provide orthotics for plantar fasciitis in Danbury and Plainsville, CT, to ensure your foot fully recovers from this condition.

What Are Orthotics?

 Orthotics are specialized shoe inserts or other support devices that can help manage various problems. They’re specially made by foot and ankle professionals who can easily fit them into a person’s shoes.

The show inserts can help with this plantar fasciitis and issues like hammertoes, fallen arches, and much more. They’re a valuable tool for so many different foot issues that they’ve become the go-to option for many doctors, particularly those who work closely with shoe manufacturers.
