Custom Orthotics & Bracing in South-Central Texas

If flat feet, arch pain, or hours on your feet all day have you looking at inserts, a custom-molded orthotic — built from an impression of your own foot — often does more than a store-bought insert. We also fit AFO ankle braces, gauntlets, and drop-foot bracing for patients who need more structural support.

Patient Questions

Are custom orthotics better than store-bought inserts?

Custom orthotics are molded to your specific foot shape and the issue we're treating, which often makes them more effective for persistent pain than a generic insert — though store-bought options can be a reasonable first step for mild symptoms.

How long do custom orthotics last?

Most custom orthotics last several years with normal use, depending on materials and how much you're on your feet. We'll let you know what to expect for your specific device.

Does insurance cover custom orthotics?

Coverage varies by plan and diagnosis. Our staff can help verify your benefits before you commit to a custom device.
