Overview

Boulder Orthotics specializes in custom footbeds, prescription orthotics and custom boot fitting.  All products are fabricated in-house using medical grade materials, and  handcrafted specifically to each individual’s needs. A hands-on foot and gait analysis and dynamic footprint evaluation are performed initially to determine the best type of orthosis for the client. I will also discuss proper shoe and boot sizing, the importance of a quality shoe/boot and the reasons why specific attributes are important for each individual.

• Custom Ski Boot liner thermo molding and modification
• Custom Ski Boot fitting and modification
• Boot stretching

In most cases, clients will leave their 2 hour appointment with a custom molded handmade orthotic in the shoe.

MEDICAL CLIENTS:

I work closely with referring doctors, chiropractors, physical therapists and acupuncturists to best help their patients reach optimal care. The goal is greater comfort, improved stability and better gait alignment, all of which contribute significantly to overall body dynamics, better posture and body alignment from the ground up.

Our clients have eliminated foot, knee, and back pain, improved their posture, and now find walking, hiking, running, cycling and skiing more efficient and fun because their foot support and footwear are working for them.

SPORTS CLIENTS:

I work with all levels of athletes, from once-a-weekers to once-a-day enthusiasts and competitive athletes. Clients are evaluated not just with an eye for their comfort, but with understanding of the demands of their particular sport or desire for performance. Most of my sport clients contact Boulder Orthotics directly, but many are referred as patients by medical professionals, from orthopedics to acupuncturists. Sport footbeds and orthotics can address a range of concerns successfully, from general foot discomfort and specific alignment issues to improved energy transfer and increased performance through a more precise fitting shoe or boot.

Some of the foot issues I work with regularly:

• PF plantar fasciitis
• Pronation
• Supination
• Metatarsalgia
• Morton’s neuroma
• Accessory navicular
• Arthritis, hallux rigidus and limitus
• PTTD
• Sesamoiditis
• Achilles tendonitis
• Bunions, corns, hammer toes, etc.
• Shin splints
