| Custom Foot Orthotics
|
|
Aside from being painful on their own, your feet can be a very important source of pain in the ankles, knees, hips and back. There are several conditions that can develop in the feet that affect the rest of your body and custom-made orthotic inserts are often the most effective treatment.
|
Bridgepoint Chiropractic deals exclusively with The Orthotic Group to provide a high quality orthotic at an affordable price. The Orthotic Group also carries an extensive collection of footwear that can be
ordered with a custom-fit orthotic already installed. Partnerships with Brooks, Hush Puppies, Florsheim, and Hi-Tec allow The Orthotic Group to offer an full assortment of sandals, casual, athletic, dress and top-tier running shoes. Workboots are also available, complete with CSA approved steel toe and puncture resistant sole.

Many insurance carriers provide yearly coverage for orthotics and may pay a set amount or a percentage of the total. Be sure to check with your benefit
carrier to ensure they allow prescriptions from Chiropractors. If not, you may be required to obtain a prescription from your family doctor before you are reimbursed. Please see our Fees for orthotic pricing.

| Gradient Compression Socks
|
Compression socks are not only useful for people with swollen legs. They can also prevent fatigue, varicose veins and circulation issues.
People who work on their feet and athletes who use their legs find great relief from achy, tired legs when using gradient compression socks.
Our line of medical-grade gradient compression hosiery is manufactured by Therafirm. Therafirm has a history of providing high quality products and all their socks are made in the USA.
Their patented "core-spun" socks allow for greater stretch, making them easy to put on and take off. Therafirm compression products are exclusively distributed in Canada by the Orthotic Group.
Several insurance carriers provide yearly coverage for compression socks and may pay for several pairs per year. Be sure to check with your benefit carrier to ensure they allow prescriptions from Chiropractors.
If not, you may be required to obtain a prescription from your family doctor before you are reimbursed.
