Could your feet be causing your back problems?

In many patients, unequal leg lengths or plantar fasciitis (heel pain) can literally affect your back. This is because these conditions cause spinal imbalances which can even affect the entire body.

Dr. Breiding uses an advanced digital scanner and sometimes x-rays to determine if an imbalance exists. If it does, he prescribes orthotics (customized shoe inserts) to address the problem. Once the orthotics are in place, patients often feel immediate relief and chiropractic treatment, such as spinal adjustments, speed up. Orthotics may solve a variety of problems including back pain, heel pain (plantar fasciitis) and sciatica.

Unlike orthotics from a podiatrist, which can be expensive and address the feet only, Dr. Breiding goes an additional step by using chiropractic treatments to level the spinal column and provide relief for the whole body. An added benefit is that Breiding Chiropractic's orthotics, while of the highest quality, are much more affordable.
