10 Reasons Orthotics Work!
10. Satisfaction. Because Stabilizers help to relieve many of the symptoms and complaints suffered by patients, use of Stabilizers along with chiropractic care will sustain the benefits and ultimate satisfaction received by your patient.
9. Put More Spring in Your Step. Stabilizers affect the total body, make the wearer feel better, and reduce the effects of fatigue while walking.
8. Increase Athletic Performance. Because Stabilizers significantly influence pelvic rotation and stride length, and also serve to reduce fatigue and improve balance, athletes experience a more consistent performance.
7. Alleviate Complications from Conditions Affecting the Foot. With many diseases, such as diabetes, there is added stress to the feet that cause complications that can lead to amputation. Stabilizers offer a cost-effective, preventative measure.
6. Attain Better Posture with Orthotics. With the body in alignment and the patient unburdened by aches and pains, he or she can concentrate on achieving correct stance and posture.
5. Align the Body. Orthotics improves foot alignment and symmetry and, ultimately, help improve overall body alignment.
4. Improve the Biomechanics of the Knee. By reducing the Q-angle, orthotics relieve stress to the knee caused by pronation. Without the added stress, the knee (one of the first casualties of any gait abnormality) stretches and rotates properly.
3. Help Reduce Biomechanical Aches and Pains. Stabilizers positively impact the three critical functions of the foot: support, locomotion, and shock absorption. The long-term effect caused by abnormalities of the gait cycle leads to asymmetrical compensation by the body.
2. Absorb Shock. Second only to restoration of balance is the importance of decreasing the heel-strike shock that our system experiences even in the day-to-day activity of walking. Heel strike shock is a major cause of musculoskeletal difficulties that, when left unchecked, can cause harmful consequences.
1. Add Balance to Your Life with Orthotics. The fact is, we are not symmetrical. This is intensified when patients suffer from pronation and the body tries to compensate. Since this is one of the most common ailments we see, and the source of the majority of symptoms, it makes sense to prolong the benefits of adjustments with Stabilizers.
