Here's what one of our patients — a warehouse worker on his feet 10 hours a day — told us after three weeks in custom orthotics: "I forgot what it felt like to finish a shift without heel pain."

Orthotics & Orthopedic Shoes in Mississauga
Your feet take roughly 8,000 to 10,000 steps a day. If every one of them lands on poor support, pain doesn't stay in your feet — it climbs into your knees, hips, and back. That's why so many people searching for orthotics & orthopedic shoes in Mississauga come to MÖWE: not just for an insole, but for a full assessment of how you stand, walk, and move.
What Are Custom Orthotics?
Built for your foot — not an average one.
Custom orthotics are prescription shoe inserts made from a 3D scan or cast of your feet. Unlike drugstore insoles, they're built to correct your specific alignment — not an average foot. Orthopedic shoes work alongside them, offering wider toe boxes, firm heel support, and cushioning designed for medical foot conditions.
Think of it this way: an off-the-shelf insole is like reading glasses from the dollar store. Custom orthotics are your actual prescription.

Frequently Asked Questions
What patients ask us most.
How do I know if I need custom orthotics?
Persistent heel, arch, knee, or lower back pain — especially after standing or walking — is the biggest sign. Uneven shoe wear, flat feet, or high arches are others. A biomechanical assessment at our Mississauga clinic confirms whether orthotics will actually help you before you spend anything.
How long do custom orthotics last?
Most custom orthotics last two to five years, depending on your activity level, weight, and footwear. The materials compress gradually, so we recommend a re-assessment every one to two years. Many insurance plans renew orthotics coverage annually, making replacements affordable.
What's the difference between orthotics and orthopedic shoes?
Orthotics are custom inserts placed inside your shoes to correct alignment. Orthopedic shoes are specially designed footwear with extra depth, support, and cushioning. Many patients benefit from combining both — the shoe provides the foundation, the orthotic provides the correction.
Do orthotics really work for plantar fasciitis?
Yes — custom orthotics are one of the most evidence-supported treatments for plantar fasciitis. They offload the strained plantar fascia and correct the mechanics causing it. At MÖWE, we often pair them with shockwave therapy for faster relief in stubborn cases.
Do I need a doctor's referral?
You don't need a referral to book an assessment with us. However, most insurance plans require a prescription for reimbursement — we'll guide you through exactly what your plan needs.
