Get Relief with Custom Orthotics in Barrie & Innisfil ON
Like a foundation holds up a house, your feet support your entire body. Any problems with your feet cause a chain of reactions throughout your body, impacting your posture as well as how you walk. Small changes can lead to serious problems.
At our naturopathic clinic in Barrie & Innisfil ON, we understand the importance of proper foot support. Medical grade custom orthotics are designed to complement the care you receive, helping improve posture, reduce strain, and enhance overall well-being.
Huronia Chiropractic & Wellness Centre (HCWC), in partnership with The Orthotic Group, provides medical grade custom orthotics to patients in Barrie & Innisfil ON. These orthotics help rebalance your feet, reduce pain and discomfort, and support your body’s natural movement. Properly designed orthotics can augment any treatment you are receiving from a health care provider and add to your general well-being, no matter where your feet may take you.
What Are Prescription Orthotics?
Though they look similar to insoles you can buy in a store, custom orthotics are much more sophisticated than this. They are biomechanical medical appliances that are made specifically to correct your foot imbalance and bring your body into proper alignment.
Our custom orthotics are 100% guaranteed! If you do not love your orthotics, we will modify them until you do, free of charge, for a 2 month period.
What Problems Can Custom Orthotics Correct at Our Naturopathic Clinic?
Medical grade orthotics gently correct your body’s balance and alignment, which in turn reduces problems with pressure points, muscle strain and abnormal forces acting on the ankles, knees, hips and spine. With your feet and body in alignment, you will experience relief from fatigue and pain in your day-to-day activities.
People whose feet do not naturally function optimally can experience a range of conditions, including:
- Overpronation or hyperpronation
- Supination
- Fallen longitudinal arch
- Fallen transverse arch
- Flat feet
- Plantar fasciitis
- Morton’s neuroma
- Metatarsalgia
- Achilles tendonitis
- Shin splints

Advanced Technology for Precision: The TOG GaitScan™
At Huronia Chiropractic & Wellness Centre in Barrie & Innisfil ON, we utilize the TOG GaitScan™, an advanced diagnostic tool that enhances custom orthotics. With 4,096 sensors and a scanning rate of 300 frames per second, this digital scanning technology captures over a million data points as you walk across the pressure plate.
What does this mean for you? Your gait cycle is analyzed in real-time, allowing us to identify even the smallest biomechanical imbalances—something that is not visible to the naked eye. These insights enable us to design orthotics that are specifically tailored to your feet, movement, and lifestyle.
The GaitScan™ also provides clear visuals and detailed reports, making it easier to understand what is happening and why orthotic therapy may be beneficial. It's not just a scan; it’s a tool that guides personalized and effective treatment, supporting your long-term comfort and performance.
Lifestyle-Tuned Medical Grade Custom Orthotics in Barri
Your feet don’t live in a lab—they live in work boots, runners, dress shoes, skates and winter boots. That’s why our medical grade custom orthotics are planned around your day, not just your foot shape. When your inserts match how you move, stand and play, you’re far more likely to feel real-world relief and keep doing what you love.

Medical Grade Compression Wear
Therafirm® is known throughout the industry for quality medical products. We monitor and control testing to meet quality standards and regulations. Our dedicated in-house Quality Assurance team verifies that each compression product is made to meet these rigorous standards.
In addition, Therafirm’s manufacturing facility has been ISO 13485 certified since 2012. What this means is that the compression socks we provide are designed and produced for use in the prevention and treatment of diseases or other medical conditions.
These medical devices help improve lives. To ensure a quality product, we don’t use just any yarns or machines. Our Italian Lonati® machines are the world’s leader in hosiery knitting machines. These machines knit the soft, stretchy compression socks your customers know and love. And our high quality yarns guarantee
that the compression in Therafirm® products will last for at least 6 months.
Personalized Fitting for Medical Grade Compression Wear in Barrie
Swollen legs, aching calves, or tired, heavy feet can slow you down at work and home. At Huronia Chiropractic & Wellness Centre, we offer medical grade compression wear with a proper clinical fit so you can move comfortably and confidently—without guesswork.
Who can benefit
Medical grade compression wear may help if you experience:
- Varicose veins or mild–moderate swelling (edema)
- Long periods of standing or sitting (nurses, teachers, drivers, office staff)
- Travel days with limited movement
- Pregnancy-related leg fatigue
- Post-injury or post-procedure swelling (as advised by your provider)
- POTS or lightheadedness when standing (when compression is part of your plan)
- Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI)
- Diabetics who have lower‑leg swelling
Everyone is different. We’ll guide you toward options that fit your goals and daily routine.
How our fitting process works
- Brief assessment:
We review symptoms, job demands, footwear, and any medical guidance you’ve received.
- Precise sizing:
Calf, ankle, and leg length measurements taken while seated and standing for an accurate fit.
- Compression level selection:
We discuss common ranges (e.g., 15–20, 20–30, 30–40 mmHg) and match the level to your needs.
- Style matching:
Knee-high, thigh-high, maternity, pantyhose—chosen for comfort, appearance, and ease of use.
- Donning tips: We teach simple techniques and demonstrate aids like donning gloves or sliders to make daily wear easier.
- Follow-up:
We recommend how to care for garments and follow up to replace with a new garment yearly to ensure effectiveness.
Comfort, function, and style
Medical grade compression wear doesn’t have to look “medical.” You can choose breathable knits, moisture-managing yarns, neutral shades for work, and sport-ready designs for active days. Thinner profiles fit dress shoes; cushioned soles suit long shifts on hard floors. We’ll help you build a small rotation so pairs last longer and stay comfortable across seasons.
Care and lifespan
- Wash in cool water, gentle cycle, and air-dry to preserve elasticity.
- Rotate pairs to reduce wear.
- Plan on periodic re-measurement—especially with weight change, pregnancy, or after a new injury.
- Book a check-in if you notice slipping, pinching, or marks that don’t fade.
Insurance and documentation
Many Canadian extended health plans cover medical grade compression wear with a prescription and detailed receipt. We provide the paperwork your plan typically requests and can coordinate with your healthcare provider when needed.

Our team treats the whole kinetic chain—hips, knees, ankles, feet—so your compression plan fits alongside manual therapy, exercise, and footwear advice. We’re practical, evidence-informed, and focused on realistic results—no hype—just careful fitting and clear guidance tailored to you.

Custom Orthotics FAQ
What are custom orthotics?
Custom orthotics are medical-grade devices made to match your unique foot shape and the way you walk. Unlike over-the-counter insoles that offer general cushioning, these are biomechanical appliances designed to support your feet and help improve overall alignment. They’re created from a precise scan of your feet, then fitted and adjusted to your needs. The goal is to correct imbalances, reduce discomfort, and support your body from the ground up—without promising perfect results for everyone.
How are custom orthotics different from store-bought insoles?
Store-bought insoles provide basic cushioning and shock absorption but do not correct specific biomechanical issues. On the other hand, medical grade custom orthotics are prescription devices created from a detailed analysis of your feet and gait. They are designed to address the root cause of pain and imbalance, ensuring that your feet, ankles, knees, hips, and spine are properly aligned. This personalized approach is what makes them so effective.
How long does it take to get my custom orthotics?
After your assessment and digital scan with our TOG GaitScan™, we send your measurements to a specialized lab. From there, it usually takes about 2 weeks for your custom orthotics to be made. We’ll contact you when they arrive and book a pickup visit to dispense them and make sure the fit feels right for you. Timing can vary slightly based on lab volume and shipping.
