| Metatarsal Pads | |
|---|---|
 Too much pressure on the ball of the foot can cause pain, nerve damage, and foot deformity. A metatarsal support reduces forefoot pressure by redistributing weight before the met heads. This offloading can relieve pain and prevent further damage to the foot. | |
An Orthotic with a metatarsal support can reduce more of the forefoot pressure altogether. This is done by loading body weight in the arch and just before the metatarsal heads. Selecting a neoprene full length top cover will also increase comfort by dramatically increasing the amount of cushion the met heads can push down into. |
|
| Depressions | |
 Depressions
help redistribute weight and offload hotspots, such as Charcot
arthropathy, callouses, bunions and other ailments. This is a unique
Archfitters service that allows a higher level of both comfort and
support to people with these ailments. |
With our expert Pedorthists and cutting edge software, we can make you the most accomodating orthotic. Our software allows us to see a 3D visualization of the orthotic before it is manufactured, giving us the ability to build it exactly to your individual specifications. |
| Heel Wedges |
|---|
|
 |
| Heel Lifts |
|
|
Wedges can be added under the
heel of any arch support. It is very common to wedge the heel of an
Orthotic to gain more control. Improving bad alignments can help
ankles, knees, and lower back. We recommend you do not go above 6mm
in wedges unless you have had experience using them or prescribe by
your doctor. Wedges will change your alignment and can cause
discomforts in the body for up to 30 days. These discomforts will
fade as the body adjusts to its new alignment.
Heel lifts are added
to one of the Orthotics to lift the heel. They are most commonly used
when one leg is shorter than the other. Make sure you select the lift
on the shorter leg. There are some cases were both heels are lifted
such as Achilles pain and Plantar Fasciitis. When you raise both
heels there is less strain on the calf muscle, attaching tendons, and
the plantar fascia tissue. A wedge can also be added with a heel
lift.| Top Covers | |
|---|---|
 |
Grey Plastizote: Provides good cushion is an open cell foam that breathes well. It is a hypoallergenic material designed to be soft and comfortable for even sensitive skin. Most popular top cover for full length EVA and 3/4 plastic orthotics. Available in 2mm and 3mm thicknesses. |
 |

 |
Dual Naugahyde: A laminate of 1.5mm HyPUR-cel® and 1mm Nogahide. Provides a very thin but durable top cover for low volume footwear. Available only in a 2.5mm thickness. |
| EVA Accomodating Foam |
|---|
.gif) EVA(Ethylene
Vinyl Acetate) is an orthopedic foam which is standard in the
industry for making custom accommodating orthotics. It is also used
in the soles of running shoes because of its cushion and durability.
These orthotics are CnC machined from a patient’s cast. |
| Thickness |
 Each orthotic
is milled out with a standard 3mm base. Base means the thickness of
material on the toe area before a top cover is added. An orthotic
with a 3mm base and a 3mm top cover will have 6mm total thickness.
Try to match the total thickness ordered with the footwear it will be
worn in. For example, most athletic shoes have a removable insole
that measures close to 6mm thick. Casual shoes commonly only have a
3mm removable insole, while dressier shoe may only have 2mm or no
removable insole. Customer satisfaction is hard to maintain when
ordering a 6mm thick orthotic to fit into footwear that only has room
for 3mm. A specific base layer can be requested in the notes to over
ride the 3mm default value. Ordering a soft density with a thicker
base such a 5mm will increase comfort and durability. Decreasing the
base thickness in a firm density to 1mm will produce a much thinner
orthotic. It is not recommended to order a soft Eva with less then
3mm or a firm Eva thicker then 3mm. Here are some examples of our
program and its custom options. |
| Density |
|
|
| Plastic Thickness | |
|---|---|
 1/8" Plastic: used
when a flex is desired. Select this thickness for dressier shoes or
when a rigid arch is not desired. You will gain increased support in
shoes but not overwhelming pain from an aggressive arch support.
Works great for runners who want to increase support but still want
the arch to flex. Recommended for body weight up to 140 lbs. |
|
 3/16" Plastic: used
when arch support is the main focus. For most people this thickness
will prevent the arch from dropping. It is the normal thickness for
orthopedic devices especially for treating Plantar Fasciitis. This
thickness maintains solid support for up to 180 lbs or a men’s shoe
size 12. After that some mild flex will occur but still offer great
support. |
|
 1/4" Plastic: used
for maximum support. Has no flex in the arch. Recommended for body
weight of more than 220 lbs or shoe sizes larger than men’s 13. |
| Graphite |
|---|
 Graphite: is
the strongest support we offer. Multiple sheets of graphite are used
to offer the most firm orthotic possible. Lasts up to 5 years! |

Computer Control Machine CuttingIn simple terms we start with a full sheet of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) roughly 1 ½ inches thick. The computer carves out the EVA to the exact 3D shape derived by Solid Works. The amazing part is, our CnC machines must execute 1200 movements to cut out each orthotic. With this many movements each orthotic comes out smooth and accurate each time. |
 |
Top CoveringIn the final stage a top cover is added and the orthotic is trimmed to the selected shoe size. There are many top covers to select from each having a unique purpose. After the orthotic has been completed and inspected for quality assurance, it is then mailed out. This entire process takes about 24 hours. Once we get your cast via mail or electronic upload, Arch Fitters will manufacture and ship within 24 hours. |

Vacuum FormingAfter the orthotic is designed, a wooden mold is cut out. A mold is a hard representation of a person’s foot with corrections. The corrections are necessary to medically align the foot and help heal, correct, or comfort each unique foot concern. Once the mold is finished it is prepped and put into a vacuum bladder system. This system is commonly known as vacuum forming. A layer of plastic, graphite, or EVA will form over these molds. In most cases the material is heated up to a certain temperature that allows it to be flexible. It is at this point the rubber bladder is closed and all air is sucked out of the unit. This causes the top rubber bladder to form over the molds forcing the material to take thier new shape. Once the heated material cools long enough the new shape becomes permanent. Thicker plastic and graphite takes longer to form. |

“I was diagnosed by a Podiatrist as having torn ligaments in my toes on both feet. The pain was unbearable and I could barely walk. It affected all aspects of my life. My alternatives were slim. If my condition did not improve within 3 months, I was facing surgery. After consulting with Arch Fitters, I decided to give orthotics a try. I immediately felt relief in my first week. In just 3 weeks I was completely pain free. I LOVE my orthotics! I even put a pair in my slippers at home! I am NEVER without them. They saved me. I recommend them EVERYONE!”
- Linda W. Brewster“When I first starting seeing Dr. Malmed, I had a lot of mid and lower back pain. After a few treatments, he recommended that I wear orthotics to help stabilize my spine. It’s AMAZING, I am now pain free! I would recommend orthotics to anyone with back pain.”

She began wearing her orthotics and shortly after went for a follow up with the Orthopedist. Her thoracic curve was reversed! If not for Dr. Malmed, my daughter would be in a brace right now. Even the orthopedist could not believe it. We firmly believe that Dr. Malmed understands the human body and is very honest about how and what he feels can treat your issue.”
