But you don’t need to be a Spartan to feel the pressure in your ankles and arches. If a quick pivot or landing sends a shock through your foot, it may be an alignment issue. We provide Custom Orthotics built for stability, comfort, and injury prevention—whether you're competing under the lights or just staying active at home. šŸ‘Ÿ
And if you tweaked something in your own pickup game, we offer in-house X-rays and Ultrasound for fast evaluation.

High impact. Sudden stops. Explosive jumps. ā›¹šŸ¾ā€ā™‚ļø Basketball puts incredible stress on the lower body. That’s where we come in.

Tonight, catch the Naugatuck vs. Bethel game and see these athletes in action. But keep in mind: Performance starts from the ground up.

Custom orthotics aren't just for pain relief; they are performance tools. They help align the foot to maximize power transfer and reduce fatigue in the fourth quarter.

Don't let foot pain bench you. Game Details: Away at Bethel HS | Wed 12/10 | 5:00 pm.
