Computer Foot Scanning and Custom Fittings
With our Amfit scanner, we can scan your feet and make custom comfort foot inserts, as well as custom orthotics. We accommodate custom inserts or orthotics, with a line of extra depth shoes for work, dress, and play, allowing us to fit your feet properly. We can also provide shoes for the hard to fit narrow and extra wide foot. Clients are invited to make appointments with us for a computer foot scan and fitting. Controlled Power for Work and Play Whatever your sport - be it walking, skiing, skating, jogging, or golfing - you depend on your feet for control, balance, and to give you feedback. The interface between your feet and your footwear is critical to your performance. Ideally, your shoes, boots, or skates should be a perfect extension of your body. We can make custom insoles for your ski boots, inline skates, bowling shoes, cleats, or existing golf shoes. There should be enough stability and movement when your footwear is properly adjusted. It should help absorb shock while maintaining the critical biomechanical structure and alignment of the foot. FootSolutions Custom-Fit Insoles and Shoes increase comfort, reduce fatigue, and give you a competitive edge. Finding the Right ShoeThe wrong shoes can cause or aggravate foot ailments. The right shoes can often prevent - but cannot correct - problems. So wearing the right shoes is vital to foot health. Follow this checklist when you buy shoes. Be sure they measure up. Construction
Fit
Only you can
tell if shoes fit. If they aren't comfortable, don't buy them! Don't plan on
shoes stretching with wear. If you already own shoes that are too tight,
ask your shoe repair shop if they can be stretched. Because feet
spread with age, have your feet measured every time you buy shoes. Both
feet should be measured as they are often different sizes. Always buy
shoes for the BIGGEST foot. Go shoe shopping
late in the afternoon. Feet swell to their largest then. Size depends
on shoe make and style, too. Don't insist you always wear one size if
the next feels better. The toe box
should be roomy enough so you can wiggle all your toes. Your forefoot
should NOT be wider than your shoe. The heel should
fit snugly and the instep should not gape open. If you can't
find shoes that fit, ask your doctor for advice. Shoes for Children
Good shoes are especially important to avoid problems
in developing feet. Because shoes serve only to protect children's feet
from injury, none are needed before a child walks. High-topped infant shoes do not support ankles - oxfords
and tennis shoes are equally good. Check OFTEN to be sure shoes aren't too small. Children's
feet are so flexible they can be crammmed into shoes two sizes too small
- and the child may not complain. Don't have children wear hand-me-down shoes. They are
permanently molded to the original owner's foot. Unfortunately, most shoes today are narrower in the front than the foot is. You can check this by standing on paper and tracing around your bare foot. Compare the outline of your foot with the sole of your shoe. If your shoe appears too narrow, you may be inviting foot problems. Choose only shoes that feel comfortable - you are the best judge of that. Our marvelous feet evolved for flexibility and strength - not to be stuffed into shoes. When people roamed the earth barefoot 4,000 years ago, foot problems were not the rule. Today, we need shoes to protect our feet from cold, injury, disease, and pounding on hard pavement. But too often we choose shoes for style rather than comfort and function. Remember: good shoes are part of the good care your feet deserve. |
