Years of Combined Experience
Expert Custom Orthotic Care for Diabetic Foot Health
Care begins with an assessment of your feet and how pressure spreads as you stand and walk, because reduced sensation can let harmful pressure points go unnoticed. We then cast your feet on site to make orthotics built to your exact shape. Worn in supportive shoes, custom orthotics redistribute pressure, cushion sensitive areas, and reduce friction, which can help protect the skin and keep you comfortable. Free parking sits at 6605 Highway 7, near Markham Stouffville Hospital.
- Multidisciplinary Team
Chiropractors, physiotherapists, and registered massage therapists collaborating under one roof, so your care is coordinated, not fragmented.
- Movement Based Approach
We assess how your body actually moves, then build a treatment plan that restores function from the foundation up. Kinetic. Core. Foundation.
“Spread the pressure, cushion the foot, and protect diabetic skin.”
Diabetes can dull sensation in the feet, letting harmful pressure go unnoticed. Our Cornell clinic casts custom orthotics on site after a careful assessment, built to your exact foot shape. Worn in supportive shoes, they redistribute pressure, cushion sensitive areas, and can help protect the skin.
