Athletic and sport specific orthotics custom made to help you perform better, no matter your sport. WHY DKOS?

WHO WE ARE

DK Orthotic Solutions is a sports pedorthic company focused on working wtih active populations which are eager and committed to recovering, maintaining and improving their athletic performance and/or physical well-being. We achieve this by using orthotic and footwear solutions to maximize the efficiency of your muscles during activity and promoting maximal levels of recovery during rest. WHAT WE DO

At DKOS we provide complete and comprehensive treatment plans, including solutions for sport, activity and recovery. We employ a proactive approach in order to keep clients at their best, so they can enjoy living an active, pain-free lifestyle, be it participating in recreational sports or activities, or training with specific goals in mind. At DK Orthotic Solutions, we strive to be different from other orthotic providers in designing our orthotics and treatment plans specific to each person and their activity. An orthotic for a running shoe is designed much differently than an orthotic for a cleat or a cycling shoe, and this is different from an orthotic designed for recovery. In order to receive maximum benefit from your orthotic, it needs to be designed specifically to the individual, their activity and their shoe.

In light of all the CFL combine action that wrapped up this past weekend, we just had to dig into our archives for this gem ⬆️. Throwback to 2017, when Drew went head-to-head with Mike Daly of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in a battle of combine drills.

Speed. Strength. Agility ... Let's just say the results might surprise you 😉

A big shout out to DKOS sponsored athlete, Noah Trotman & his teammate, Luca, as they compete in one of the world's toughest mountain bike stage races, Cape Epic in South Africa!

Day 3 in, 5 to go… as they grind through 700+ KM and 16,000m of climbing, through brutal terrain, mountain passes, and whatever extreme weather gets thrown their way.

Let's go, Noah & Luca - team Double Denim - repping Canada all the way!

🏒 Playoffs are almost here. Is your stride ready?

As the hockey season comes to a close, the smallest details start to matter most. Proper foot alignment helps your body transfer power more efficiently, improves edge control, and supports stability on the ice.

Custom skate-specific orthotics are designed to stay thin, support neutral foot positioning, and work with your skates during acceleration and quick direction changes ... Helping your stride feel more connected and controlled.

If you’re heading into playoffs and want to feel confident in every push and turn, it may be worth taking a closer look at your foot mechanics.

At DKOS, every orthotic is designed and manufactured in-house. Using a 3D model of your foot, our pedorthists custom-make each orthotic to address specific biomechanical needs, then build it using high quality materials like carbon fibers, resins and specialty polymers. Each orthotic is vacuum-formed, milled, hand-finished, and checked for accuracy ... Resulting in precise, high-quality support made specifically for you.

It’s important to have the proper support from your shoes when going for a hike, run or any high impact sport. 👟

Many people find that their foot will slip and slide around in their shoes, no matter how tight they lace their laces.

Watch this video to see how using a "heel lock" lacing technique can help keep your foot secure during activity.

Have you tried this before?

Does being flat-footed mean you need orthotics? 👟

Not necessarily.

Being 'flat footed' often refers to what your feet look like when you are standing stationary.
It refers to a moment in time and is not necessarily indicative of what your feet look like during other movements.
