Orthotics
An orthotic provides the support, stability, cushioning, and alignment necessary to keep the feet, ankles, and lower body comfortable, healthy, and pain-free.
Almost anyone can benefit from orthotics. Orthotics can alleviate many common foot problems that cause pain and discomfort in otherwise healthy people. There are different types of orthotics designed for different activities, various shoe gear and various foot ailments.
The most effective orthotics are custom-made devices that are crafted to meet the specific needs of a particular individual.
Braces
Podiatrists use a brace that is a medical aid you put on to help support a number of joints in lower limbs including the ankle, and the knee. The reason for using one may be a lack of stability or strength, or the joint may be subject to pain or swelling.
