What Are Custom Orthotics?
Custom orthotics are designed to support your unique foot structure and improve how your feet function. They are NOT arch supports—which offer minimal, generalized support—custom orthotics are individually crafted based on your specific foot mechanics and health concerns.
At Central Massachusetts Podiatry, we create your orthotics through a comprehensive process, which may include:
- Evaluation & Foot Scan. We begin with a thorough medical and lifestyle assessment, including a 3D scan of your feet.
- Diagnosis & Gait Analysis. Next, we analyze how you walk and stand to uncover imbalances or abnormal pressure points.
- Custom Orthotic Creation. Based on the findings, we design orthotics tailored to your foot shape and condition and send it to our lab for fabrication.
- Fitting & Follow-Up. Once your orthotics are ready, we ensure proper fit and make any necessary adjustments.

These assessments help us identify structural imbalances, pressure points, and improper movement patterns, critical information that allows us to design orthotics tailored to your exact needs. This prescription is sent to our lab for fabrication, ensuring the custom orthotics are made just for you.
Generic insoles are often chosen based on shoe size or "foot type" presets. Some store-bought “custom orthotics” were just pre-made orthotics that matched your digital scan. These approaches can miss the root cause of pain or imbalance. Learn more about orthotics here.

JERRY L.
Finding him is a God send and I look forward to being under his care for a long time.
AI was so relieved to have met Dr Pelto. I have had foot issues since I was a young nurse and always wore Clinics shoes. After retiring I no longer found good shoes and had orthotics made. After seeing different podiatrists and having some surgery I needed another procedure but also a new doctor since mine retired. Finding him is a God send and I look forward to being under his care for a long time. Staff were all very kind and friendly. On time too!!!!
