Custom kids' orthotics are specialised shoe inserts designed specifically for your child’s growing feet. At North Star Podiatry, we craft these to a podiatrist’s prescription to help improve alignment, support developing arches, and make every movement more comfortable. Whether your child is struggling with "growing pains," flat feet, or coordination during sports, orthotics provide a stable foundation for their active lifestyle. We tailor each pair to fit your child’s unique foot shape, ensuring they have the support they need to play, run, and grow with confidence.
Think of your child’s feet as the foundation of a house. When the foundation is properly aligned, everything above it—the ankles, knees, and hips—stays in balance. If a child’s feet roll in too far or lack support, it can cause "growing pains" and stress in their joints as they develop. Our custom orthotics act as a gentle guide, helping your child’s feet stay in the best possible position. This doesn't just make walking more comfortable; it improves their overall posture and protects their joints, ensuring they have a sturdy, healthy foundation for years to come.
Whether your child has flat feet or high arches, custom orthotics provide a level of support that generic, store-bought insoles simply can’t provide. Because every child’s growth pattern is different, we use state-of-the-art technology—including 3D digital scanning, video gait analysis, and force-plate pressure mapping—to see exactly how your child moves. This data allows us to create a "blueprint" of their stride, ensuring their orthotics are perfectly customized to their needs. By tracking these results over time, we can monitor their development and make sure they stay comfortable, whether they are in the classroom or competing in high-impact sports like soccer or dance.
Invest in your child’s long-term health with custom orthotics. They are a versatile tool for relieving discomfort and improving posture during those crucial growing years. At North Star Podiatry, we’re dedicated to keeping your child’s feet healthy today for a more active tomorrow.
