Your Happy Feet Team at Bedford Orthotics is dedicated to relieving your foot, leg and back pain so you can do what you love. We use accurate plaster casts & onsite manufacturing lab to ensure quality service every step of the way. Owner Andrea Richard, a Certified Canadian Pedorthist, offers services covered by all major insurance plans.
Consumers with sad fee and related leg or back pain can have a confusing range of options and promises in the marketplace to consider when choosing the best trusted solution for their pain relief. Here are the four of the top reasons why our loyal patients have gladly referred friends, family and coworkers since 1988.
1. Reliable 3-D Weight-bearing Best Fit Technology Casting Method;
We take the time to do it right and have built our reputation for long-term, pain-free results by starting with a reliable weight-bearing three dimensional plaster cast. For the same reason you walk around in new shoes you might buy, we believe it’s more accurate to cast you standing as your foot naturally touches the ground. After we create a true model of your unique feet we can best handcraft your optimal performance custom orthotics. Better fit, less adjustments, faster sustained relief.
2. Onsite Lab Service for Personal Touch Quality Assurance with Every Step:
In our experience as your happy feet team, we can better guarantee high quality of your handcrafted orthotics when we make them ourselves in our own state of the art onsite lab. We can also save you time by making during you visit. An onsite lab also saves you time as we can pop into the back room to make modifications while you wait.
3. Friendly, Trusted and Certified Expertise
Andrea Richard, happy feet team leader and owner of Bedford Orthotics, has been practising pedorthics since 1988. She earned her designation as a Canadian Certified Pedorthist(1993) and is a member of the College of Pedorthics Canada.
