custom orthotics with Twin Falls podiatrist

The Advantages of Go 4-D Custom Orthotics

  • A truly perfect fit. Super-precise digital scanning and pressure plate analysis give real-time data that goes straight to the 3D printer. This means you get a more comfortable, exact fit the first time, rather than a fit that will likely require additional adjustments after they’re made when it comes to traditional orthotics casting.
  • Made for you and how you walk. Once the lab has the data of your foot scan, sophisticated software algorithmically designs the orthotic to perfectly complement your biomechanics. It uses a unique lattice design that allows for subtle variations in thickness, density, and other attributes to meet your needs in a far more personalized way than could ever be achieved with a solid piece of molded plastic.
  • Modern research backed. Many traditional custom orthotics are still fit and manufactured the same way they were 20-30 years ago. This is a problem since our scientific understanding of optimum foot and ankle biomechanics has been vastly improved since then. Go 4-D orthotics are based on a better understanding of how your feet really work.
  • Adapt to any situation. The same pair of Go 4-D orthotics will be just as effective and comfortable in whatever shoe you put them in and use them for. These orthotics are designed to function at every part of your foot.  Even though they are extremely thin and lightweight, they can handle a long day at work on your feet, an evening on the town, or a marathon with equal ease and can last longer than prefabricated orthotics.

Why Choose Custom?

You’ve probably seen (and maybe even used) relatively inexpensive padded insoles available at the pharmacy or grocery store. While these may provide some relief in some circumstances, custom orthotics are a similar but significantly more effective tool.

That’s because Go 4-D custom orthotics are made exactly to the shape and form of your feet, rather than mass-produced to fit a handful of basic foot types. When you visit our office, we’ll get right to work with scanning your feet to make these orthotics to your exact specifications.

Unlike the vast majority of prefabricated inserts, custom orthotics can not only relieve painful symptoms but treat the fundamental causes of foot pain and injury, including gait abnormalities and overpronation. They also tend to be much more durable than standard insoles, in many cases allowing you to wear the same pair for years with proper care and maintenance.
