Custom Foot Orthotics for Apple Valley residents
Apple Valley residents receive custom foot orthotics in Saint Louis Park — about 17 miles (37 minutes) from the Minnesota Zoo via Cedar Avenue / 77 north to 62 west, then 100.
Heel pain, plantar fascia irritation, knee tracking that started in the feet, or low-back pain that keeps returning in the same gait pattern. Also the “can a chiropractor help heel spurs?” question — we can often calm the tissue and the mechanics; we cannot sand a spur off with a laser.
This is not a second Apple Valley office. The Zoo is the landmark people joke about; the real story is Cedar Avenue traffic. Apple Valley patients make a dedicated trip. We send home work that survives a Dakota County week, not a fantasy of daily visits. Common reasons Apple Valley patients book custom foot orthotics: plantar fasciitis, knee tracking pain, and low-back pain linked to gait.

Who this is for
Heel pain, plantar fascia irritation, knee tracking that started in the feet, or low-back pain that keeps returning in the same gait pattern. Also the “can a chiropractor help heel spurs?” question — we can often calm the tissue and the mechanics; we cannot sand a spur off with a laser.
How a visit runs
We look at stance, shoes, and how the spine is compensating. If a custom device is the right lever, it is prescribed to your foot, not pulled from a wall rack. OTC inserts are cheaper and often the wrong shape.
When this is the wrong first step
A fracture, an active infection, or a foot that needs a surgeon first. Orthotics also will not fix a hip problem that is not coming from the ground up.
From Apple Valley, the usual route is Cedar Avenue / 77 north to 62 west, then 100. Nearby medical context: Fairview Ridges in Burnsville.
