Custom Orthotics in McAllen, TX

Made for Your Feet. Designed for Your Life.

If you’re dealing with heel pain, arch discomfort, or foot fatigue that just won’t go away, over-the-counter insoles may not be enough. At Balance Foot, Ankle & Wound Care Specialists in McAllen, TX, we offer precision-made custom orthotics that match your unique foot structure — and support you where it matters most.

What Are Custom Orthotics?

Custom orthotics are medical-grade shoe inserts crafted specifically for your feet. Unlike store-bought insoles, they’re made from molds or digital scans of your foot, and are prescribed by a podiatrist based on your condition, activity level, and gait.

  • Distribute pressure evenly
  • Improve alignment from foot to hip
  • Alleviate pain caused by flat feet, high arches, or plantar fasciitis
  • Prevent injuries in active individuals
  • Support diabetic feet and offload pressure points

Conditions Custom Orthotics Can Help

  • Plantar Fasciitis
  • Flat Feet or Collapsed Arches
  • Overpronation or Supination
  • Heel Spurs
  • Metatarsalgia (ball of foot pain)
  • Tendonitis or Shin Splints
  • Diabetic foot pressure relief
  • Lower back, knee, or hip pain linked to foot mechanics

What to Expect

We assess your pain, gait, foot shape, and footwear to determine if custom orthotics are right for you.
