Specialized Care for Foot Health and Orthotic Support
At Care-Med, we offer in-depth Pedorthist Foot Assessments designed to address individual concerns related to foot-related pain, mobility, and alignment. Our assessments are conducted by experienced Canadian Certified Pedorthists and Chiropodists who work together to recommend the most suitable treatment options and custom orthotic solutions.
Whether you’re dealing with ongoing discomfort, recovering from an injury, or experiencing changes in how you walk or move, the goal of this assessment is to identify the cause and create a personalized plan that supports long-term foot health
What Happens During the Foot Assessment
During your visit, we’ll start by reviewing your medical and activity history to get a full picture of the factors contributing to your symptoms. This includes previous injuries, work and lifestyle habits, and any existing conditions that may affect your gait or foot mechanics.
The physical assessment includes both weight-bearing and non-weight-bearing evaluations. Your Pedorthist will examine:
- Joint mobility in your feet and ankles
- Muscle strength and flexibility
- Foot structure (normal, flat, high arch)
- Presence of swelling, inflammation, or pressure points
- Knee and lower back alignment
- Gait and walking pattern at different phases of movement
Every detail helps guide the development of a treatment approach, whether that includes custom orthotics, modified footwear, or additional support strategies.
How Long Does It Take?
A typical assessment takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the complexity of your symptoms. We take the time to ensure every part of the evaluation is thorough, from reviewing your medical history to analyzing how your feet move during walking. You’ll have an opportunity to ask questions, discuss symptoms, and learn more about how your foot mechanics may be contributing to pain or mobility issues.
The process is comfortable, informative, and focused on long-term results. By the end of the appointment, you’ll have a clear understanding of whether orthotics or other support options are appropriate for you, along with personalized recommendations to help improve your overall foot function.
