Your feet are quite literally the foundation of your body. They support all of your body weight and add stability using a 3-arched bond called the plantar vault. But over time, one or more of your arches may weaken and begin to collapse. Poor posture, injuries, and (believe it or not) gravity can all add to this. Foot Levelers custom stabilizing orthotics can help alleviate this by providing support for all 3 arches of your feet.
The Plantar Vault Explained
The foot is made up of 3 bony arches that all work together to keep the body balanced:
- Medial longitudinal arch (A–C)
- Lateral longitudinal arch (B–C)
- Anterior transverse (metatarsal) arch (A–B)
Customized 3-Arch Support with Foot Levelers
Dr. Merckling of Merckling Family Chiropractic can custom make a pair of Foot Levelers specifically for your feet and arches. Your orthotics will be individually crafted from a 3D scan of your feet. And, Foot Levelers are available in a variety of styles to suit your needs – including flip-flops!
