Your felt sense and connection to the ground, from your feet through your shoes, plays a major role in your postural alignment, how you physically feel, how you orient yourself upright against gravity and with what muscles to make you move.

Your ability to sense yourself relative to the ground reflects how you process and integrate information, and even plays a role in your emotional regulation and feeling safe in your body. 

Orthotics can be a fantastic tool to help facilitate this.

 

Orthotics that are found over-the-counter can be extremely beneficial at times and in certain situations, but sometimes a mirrored pair of left and right orthotics do not help because your right and left foot are inherently different from one another. PRI orthotics are custom made to your unique feet while also reflecting the asymmetry sensory and support needs between your right and left sides. 

 

Custom Postural Restoration Institute (PRI) Orthotics, are made with special consideration to your body’s natural asymmetries. For example you don’t have 2 hearts or 2 livers, etc. Your organs and the position of them in your body creates a natural difference between the right and left sides. 

PRI orthotics understand this and create a unique left and right orthotic customized to your feet. To find a provider who can assist you in getting a pair of custom PRI orthotics, you may:
