The Role of Orthotic Inserts in Managing Plantar Fasciitis

Laguna Woods Podiatry Group is a leading team in California. With Dr. Neda Arjomandi, we can provide orthotic inserts in Laguna Hills, CA, to help with plantar fasciitis. We’ll do what we can to ensure you get the help you need here.

What Exactly Are Orthotics?

Orthotics (insoles) are unique and effective care options podiatrists create to help with various foot problems. Athletes often wear them to support their feet while they perform. However, even non-athletes can use them to successfully manage things like plantar fasciitis.

They’re usually made of various materials, such as ethyl-vinyl acetates, gels, foams, cork items, moldable plastics, and carbon fiber products. Our team will carefully adjust these insoles to fit your needs and support your feet as much as possible to keep you strong.

How Do They Help Plantar Fasciitis?

Laguna Woods Podiatry Group and Dr. Arjomandi understand how orthotic inserts in Laguna Hills, CA, help with plantar fasciitis. We’ll carefully measure your foot, gauge your plantar fasciitis impact, and create an orthotic insert that fits your foot snugly. 

Once inserted into your shoe, this orthotic can keep your feet fully supported and minimize pain from plantar fasciitis. Significantly, it can help you walk more easily, exercise when you want, and get long-term support to reduce severe pain in your feet.

In What Other Ways Can We Help You?

At Laguna Woods, we can provide the podiatric foot support needed to manage plantar fasciitis in various ways. For example, we can prescribe pain medications that reduce your suffering while you wait for your orthotics. If necessary, we can also help in other ways, including:

• Fitting you with new supportive shoes that provide even more support 
• Providing you with stretches and physical therapy sessions that may work for you
• Surgery to improve the strength of your plantar to ensure it stays strong and healthy
