Both flat feet and overly high arches can affect the way your feet function. These conditions often lead to poor biomechanics, which can create discomfort not only in the feet but also in the ankles, knees, hips, and even the lower back. Left untreated, they may increase the risk of overuse injuries and long-term joint problems.
Common Symptoms include:
-
Arch pain or general foot fatigue
-
Heel or ankle pain, especially after activity
-
Knee, hip, or back pain linked to poor foot posture
-
Uneven shoe wear patterns that indicate altered foot mechanics

-
Custom orthotics – designed specifically for your feet to improve alignment and relieve pressure.
-

-
