Talanton Foot Orthotics: Custom Molded Foot Support in Southern Maine
Welcome to Talanton Foot Orthotics, Southern Maine’s premier service for custom-molded foot orthotics. Our hand-crafted orthotics provide a carefully contoured, full-contact support, designed to stabilize and align the entire foot. Recommended by podiatrists and physicians, they are ideal for conditions like flat feet, overpronation, high-arch and other foot issues requiring enhanced support.
Why Custom Orthotics?
Each orthotic is meticulously crafted using Biofoam foot impressions and a thorough evaluation of your feet, ankles, and legs. Plaster foot models are then created and modified to address your foot imbalances, flexibility, and movement patterns. Using these molds, we hand-mold all the materials used to fabricate your molded foot orthotics. This full-contact design distributes weight evenly, supports all three of the arches, and promotes proper foot and ankle alignment, reducing strain and enhancing overall body posture.
The Importance of Healthy Feet
Your feet, with 26 bones and 33 joints each, make up a quarter of your body’s bones. They are the foundation of your body, supporting balance and mobility. Issues like flat feet (pronation), where the inside arch drops & the foot rolls inward excessively, can lead to problems throughout the body (think knee, hip, or back, even neck pain). Flat feet are common in adults due to natural wear & age, obesity, multiple pregnancies, tendon damage, or diabetes. Athletes, especially runners, who overpronate are at higher risk for injuries like shin splints, bunions, heel pain, and plantar fasciitis.
Benefits of Talanton Orthotics
Our custom molded foot orthotics effectively address foot and ankle ailments, improve posture, and correct biomechanical issues when paired with proper footwear. Their effectiveness depends on expert craftsmanship, consistent use, and appropriate shoes. Together, they form a powerful partnership to enhance your quality of life.
