Custom Orthotics
Freedom therapists examine patients from head to toe, analyzing how best to assist them in reaching optimal physical function. In doing so, therapists often provide advice regarding what type of shoewear will augment therapy, help reduce pain and restore function. Even with proper shoe wear, some patients benefit from the addition of custom orthotics to maximize recovery and function.
