Bring comfort and relief to your day!  Clients with conditions such as diabetic foot ulcers, poor circulation or difficulty walking due to pain in their hip, knee or ankle joints can visit the Orthotic Clinic to receive a dynamic gait and pressure analysis.

Our trained physiotherapist customizes orthotics for individuals of all ages who play sports, stand on their feet at work, or have specific medical conditions.
