Years of Combined Experience
How Our Custom Orthotics Protect Wismer Commons Athletes
Care begins with a biomechanical assessment of your stride and how your foot loads, because unsupported mechanics can drive shin, knee, and ankle injuries. We then cast your feet on site to make sport orthotics built to your exact shape. Worn in your training shoes, custom orthotics absorb shock, steady the foot, and improve alignment, which can ease pain and lower the risk of overuse injury. Fitting is careful, and we adjust for your sport. Free parking sits at 6605 Highway 7.
- 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.
“Steady the stride, absorb the shock, and protect each athlete.”
Sport loads the feet hard, and an unsupported stride can drive overuse injuries. Our Wismer Commons clinic casts sport orthotics on site after a biomechanical assessment, built to your exact foot shape. Worn in training shoes, they absorb shock, steady the foot, and can lower the risk of injury.
What We Offer
Custom Orthotics and Athletic Rehabilitation in Wismer Commons
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care works alongside custom orthotics with adjustment and mobilization, freeing the joint restriction that can limit an athlete’s stride, so the two therapies work well together.
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy complements custom orthotics with gait retraining and sport-specific exercise, rebuilding the strength and control an athlete relies on, as one step in your wider recovery plan.
Registered Massage Therapy
Massage therapy complements custom orthotics with sports techniques that flush tired legs and ease tension as your stride improves, helping you return to comfortable movement and daily life.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture and dry needling pair well with custom orthotics, releasing the tight muscle and trigger points around a sports injury, helping restore comfortable movement for daily activities.
Class IV K-Laser Therapy
Class IV laser therapy works alongside custom orthotics, using deep, warm light to calm inflammation in a strained shin, arch, or tendon, supporting easier movement through your daily routine.
Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics, cast on site after a biomechanical assessment, absorb shock and steady the stride, easing pain and lowering overuse injury risk for Wismer athletes, matched to how you respond.
Exercise Rehabilitation
Exercise rehabilitation extends custom orthotics with sport-specific programs that rebuild strength and control for a safe return to play, helping you get back to comfortable everyday movement.
Pelvic Floor Therapy

Frequent Asked Questions
Can custom orthotics help with sports injuries?
Yes, custom orthotics can help by absorbing shock, steadying the foot, and easing the mechanics behind shin, knee, and ankle overuse injuries. They support your stride. Each pair starts with a biomechanical assessment. We coordinate with your other care where it helps and adjust as you respond.
Can orthotics help shin splints from running?
Yes, custom orthotics can help shin splints by correcting the foot mechanics that overload the shin. Better support reduces the repeated strain. We often pair them with gait and training advice. Your questions are welcome first, and we keep the whole session calm, clear, and unhurried.
Will custom orthotics fit in my sports shoes?
Yes, we build sport orthotics to fit your training and athletic footwear. We match the orthotic to the shoe and your sport. You can bring your regular training shoes to the fitting so we can check the fit. We answer your questions first, then keep the treatment gentle and comfortable throughout.
What goes into making custom orthotics?
We take a cast or scan of your feet after a biomechanical assessment, then build orthotics to that exact shape. The process is quick and comfortable. Your orthotics are then fitted to your athletic footwear. We start by understanding your history, and keep you comfortable the whole way through.
Will my insurance cover custom orthotics?
Custom orthotics are often covered by extended health plans, usually with a biomechanical assessment and prescription, though not by OHIP. Coverage depends on your plan. We direct bill many insurers. To check yours, contact us. Your comfort guides the visit, and we talk you through what to expect.
Where is the clinic, and how do I get there from Wismer Commons?
Do custom orthotics and chiropractic care work together?
Yes, custom orthotics and chiropractic care work well together for athletes. Orthotics support the stride while a chiropractor frees restricted joints. Athletes in Wismer Commons and nearby custom orthotics in Markham Village often see a chiropractor. We talk through your goals before we start.
What is the lifespan of custom orthotics?
Custom orthotics usually last two to five years, though heavy training can shorten that. We check their condition at follow-ups. Refurbishing or replacing them keeps the support consistent. We begin by understanding your history and goals, then keep you relaxed the entire time.
