Prescription shoe inserts made for your feet, to relieve pain and support the way you walk.

Custom orthotics can help with:
Getting orthotics at Opensky Podiatry starts with understanding why your feet hurt, not just their size.

Store-bought insoles are made for an average foot. Custom orthotics are built from a mold or scan of your own feet and prescribed for your specific condition, so they can correct and support in ways a generic insert can’t.
It depends on the materials, your activity level, and how often you wear them. We check them at follow-up visits and let you know when they need to be refurbished or replaced.
We take the shoes you wear most into account. Orthotics can be made for athletic shoes, everyday shoes, and some dress shoes.
Most people wear them for a few hours a day at first and build up over a week or two. If anything feels uncomfortable, let us know and we’ll adjust them.
Coverage varies by plan. Our team can help you check your benefits before you’re fitted.
