Northport Wellness Center Podiatrist Dr. Steven Stummer has had success in treating many back, knee and foot pain  with various biomechanical aids including custom made orthotics.

Very often the source of your neck, back and knee pain may be in your feet. When foot posture is incorrect, your entire body structure is weakened and misaligned, leading to painful conditions throughout the body. Therefore, it becomes very important to align your body. Custom made foot orthotics will help to realign your body and reduce the stress on your back,knees and feet.

Shin Splints, tendonitis, posterior tibal dysfunction, iliotibialband syndrome, limb length discrepancy, stress fracture, and compartment syndrome may all be mechanically induced. Many of these problems are a result of structural problems and abnormal functions resulting in hyperpropration and excessive tibal rotation.
