Do I need an appointment for compression stockings, orthotics or bracing?

Yes. Compression, custom orthotics and custom bracing require an assessment and measurement so the fit, support and documentation are correct. Book online or call 226-721-8777.

Are compression stockings, custom orthotics and braces covered by insurance?

Many extended health plans cover medical compression stockings, custom orthotics and custom braces when the required documentation is in place. Coverage differs by plan, so check your limits with your insurer. We direct bill where your plan allows.

Do you carry Sigvaris compression?

Yes. We fit Sigvaris graduated compression and will recommend the right class, size and style for your needs.

How long does a custom orthotics appointment take?

The orthotic assessment is usually about 20-25 minutes. A separate fitting appointment, usually 15-20 minutes, is booked once your custom orthotics are ready.

Custom Orthotics

Custom-made shoe inserts assessed and fitted by trained pedorthists

Custom orthotics are shoe inserts designed around your foot shape, gait and symptoms. They can support foot alignment, redistribute pressure, improve comfort, help with flat feet or high arches, and reduce stress through the feet, ankles, knees, hips and lower back. Your orthotic service includes an assessment, measurements or casting when needed, and a fitting appointment after the devices are made so your pedorthist can check comfort, support and any adjustments.

TENS Units

Drug-free pain relief you can use at home

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) units deliver gentle electrical pulses that may help interrupt pain signals and ease muscle tension. We help you choose a unit, set it up correctly and understand safe electrode placement so you can manage pain between clinic visits.
