Custom Orthotics in Victoria, BC
Personalized Support for Foot, Ankle, and Lower Limb Pain
Custom orthotics are medical-grade shoe inserts designed to support, align, and improve the function of your feet and lower limbs. Unlike over-the-counter insoles that offer a generic, one-size-fits-all solution, custom orthotics are uniquely tailored to the shape, structure, and biomechanics of your feet.
At Pursuit Physiotherapy in Victoria, BC, we use advanced scanning technology to ensure your orthotics provide optimal comfort, support, and long-term pain relief.
How Custom Orthotics Are Made
Our custom orthotics are crafted using precise measurements and diagnostic data captured with the Footmaxx / Promaxx 3Dmaxx Scanner. This state-of-the-art technology creates a detailed 3D image of your feet, allowing us to design orthotics that address your specific biomechanical needs, posture, and gait patterns.
This personalized approach helps correct imbalances, reduce strain, and improve overall movement efficiency.
Chiropractor-Recommended Orthotics in Victoria
Our Victoria chiropractor, Dr. Rob, often recommends custom orthotics as part of a comprehensive treatment plan. Chiropractors are trained to identify how foot mechanics affect the entire body—from the ankles and knees to the hips and spine.
By addressing underlying biomechanical issues, custom orthotics can help relieve foot pain, improve posture, and support long-term musculoskeletal health.

A professional assessment by a chiropractor or physiotherapist in Victoria ensures your orthotics are properly prescribed, fitted, and optimized for your lifestyle and activity level.
