A NOVAH SERVICE
Pedorthics
Custom orthotics, footwear and lower-limb care that change how your body carries weight — easing foot, leg, knee and back pain from the ground up.
One discipline in your coordinated Novah plan. Assessed, cast and fitted in our on-site lab.
Care from the ground up
Your feet are the foundation your whole body stands on — so when their alignment or mechanics are off, the effects can travel up to your knees, hips and back. Pedorthists are healthcare providers trained in the biomechanics of the lower limb. Using custom and non-custom solutions — foot orthotics, footwear modifications and compression — they relieve pain and help your body move better.
At Novah, pedorthics is one part of a plan that looks at the whole person, not just the feet.
What’s a custom foot orthotic? A prescribed, custom-made device that fits into your shoe to support, align and improve how your foot functions. It can be made for all ages and almost any footwear, and it’s designed around your needs — and the shoes you actually wear.
WHERE IT FITS
One part of a bigger plan
Picture your pain as a balance between the load your body carries and the capacity it has to meet it. Pedorthics works on the load — literally from the ground up: by changing how force travels through your feet and legs, an orthotic can take strain off the joints and tissues that hurt.
When it helps to combine pedorthic care with physiotherapy, chiropractic or other care, your Novah team coordinates everything around one plan.
What to expect
We start with you
Your assessment begins with your needs, your lifestyle and your goals — and the factors that may be contributing to your pain. Everything you share is confidential and safeguarded.
A close look at how you move
A comprehensive biomechanical assessment and video gait analysis show exactly how you stand, walk and load your body.
Your treatment plan
Built around your alignment, movement and goals — this may include custom orthotics, compression, footwear recommendations, mobilizations, stretching and self-care.
Cast, fitted and followed up
Custom orthotics are made from a precise 3D mold, fitted 1–2 weeks later (bring the shoes you’ll wear them with), and fine-tuned on the spot in our on-site lab. A follow-up 2–4 weeks after that checks how they’re working — and adjustments are free for the first year.

THE NOVAH DIFFERENCE
The foundation everything stands on
It’s easy to overlook the feet — but they carry everything above them, and a small change at the base can ease strain all the way up. At Novah, pedorthic care is delivered as part of a whole-person plan and made in our own on-site lab, so it fits your life and your feet precisely. Our goal isn’t only to ease today’s pain, but to give your body a steadier foundation to move on.
