"True or False: Custom orthotics are only for athletes?"
Answer: FALSE! ❌
Custom orthotics help anyone with foot problems, not just athletes. They're commonly prescribed for:
- Office workers with plantar fasciitis from standing or walking on hard surfaces
- People with flat feet or high arches who need better support
- Diabetics who need pressure redistribution to prevent ulcers
- Seniors with arthritis or balance issues
- Anyone with leg length differences or alignment problems
- People recovering from foot injuries or surgery
The key is that custom orthotics are designed specifically for YOUR foot shape and condition - whether you're running marathons or just walking to the shops.
