During the initial consultation, the type(s) of orthotics to best serve you will be determined. All orthotics are transferable from shoe to shoe. However, not all orthotics will have the same supportive features due to space limitations within certain shoes.

Conversely, a thin (lower profile) design will fit in most shoes but stability and cushioning is sacrificed. For more on this topic, go to Products & Services at this site.
