Orthopedic Shoes
Overview
Orthopedic shoes are medical-grade footwear designed to support the structure and function of your feet. Unlike regular shoes, they are built to accommodate foot conditions, improve alignment, reduce pain, and enhance overall mobility.
They are often recommended for individuals with foot pain, deformities, biomechanical issues, or chronic conditions that affect the feet, ankles, knees, hips, or lower back.
Orthopedic shoes can be worn on their own or in combination with custom orthotics for optimal results.
What Do Orthopedic Shoes Do?
Orthopedic shoes are designed to:
- Provide proper foot support and stability
- Improve alignment from the foot up through the legs
- Reduce abnormal pressure points
- Absorb shock during walking
- Accommodate deformities or swelling
- Improve comfort and walking efficiency
They are constructed with features such as:
- Deeper and/or wider toe boxes
- Firm heel counters
- Supportive midsoles
- Removable insoles (to fit custom orthotics)
- Rocker or supportive soles to reduce joint strain
Insurance Coverage Information
In many cases, orthopedic shoes may be eligible for coverage through private insurance plans when they are clinically indicated. Coverage depends on your individual policy and medical findings identified during your assessment. If orthopedic footwear is deemed medically necessary, our clinic can provide the appropriate clinical documentation to support an insurance claim.
