Your Feet Could Be Affecting More Than You Think…..
Our Foot Levelers 3D Posture Scan gives us a detailed look at how your feet and posture are interacting, helping us identify areas of imbalance that may be contributing to discomfort, poor alignment, or movement issues.
What is a Foot Levelers 3D Posture Scan?
Your feet are the foundation of your body—and they can influence how the rest of your body moves and aligns.
The Foot Levelers 3D Posture Scan is a quick, non-invasive assessment that gives us a closer look at your feet, posture, and overall alignment. Using 3D scanning technology, we can identify areas of asymmetry and imbalance that may be affecting the way you stand, walk, and move.
At Arancia Physical Therapy, we use the scan as one piece of the puzzle to better understand your individual needs. Your results can help us determine whether additional foot support, such as custom orthotics, may be beneficial as part of your overall treatment plan.
The scan is quick, simple, and completely non-invasive—and it gives you a visual way to better understand what's happening from the ground up.

REVIEW
We'll review your results with you and explain what we're seeing.
PERSONALIZED RECCOMMENDATIONS
If appropriate, we'll discuss whether custom orthotics or other treatment options may help support your body's alignment and movement.
What are Foot Levelers custom orthotics?
Not every foot is the same—and your support shouldn't be either.
Foot Levelers custom orthotics are designed around your individual feet, posture, and movement patterns. Rather than using a one-size-fits-all insert, custom orthotics provide personalized support based on your body's specific needs.
Because your feet are your foundation, changes in how your feet load and move can influence your ankles, knees, hips, pelvis, and spine. That's why we look at more than just your feet.
Personalized Support
Using your 3D posture scan along with our clinical assessment, we can better understand how your feet are interacting with the rest of your body. If additional support may be beneficial, custom orthotics can be designed specifically for you.
Orthotics may help support:
Foot and arch stability
Alignment throughout the lower body
Balance and stability
More efficient movement
One Piece of the Puzzle
At Arancia Physical Therapy, we don't believe orthotics are the solution for everyone. They are one tool that may be incorporated into your overall treatment plan when appropriate.
Our goal isn't to sell you orthotics—it's to determine whether they are the right fit for your body and your goals.
How Orthotics Fit Into Physical Therapy
Your feet are just one piece of the puzzle. At Arancia Physical Therapy, we look at how your feet, posture, movement, and the rest of your body work together.
If your assessment shows that additional foot support may be beneficial, custom orthotics can be incorporated into your physical therapy plan to help support better alignment, stability, and movement.
Orthotics aren't a replacement for therapy—they're another tool we can use to help you reach your goals.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 3D posture scan?
A 3D posture scan is a quick, non-invasive assessment that allows us to look at your feet, posture, and overall alignment. It gives us additional information about how your feet may be affecting the way your body stands and moves.
How long does the scan take?
The scan only takes a few minutes and is completely non-invasive. We then review the results with you and explain what we're seeing.
Is the scan painful?
Not at all! The scan is quick, simple, and does not involve any needles or uncomfortable procedures.
Do I need to have foot pain to get a scan?
No. You don't have to have foot pain to benefit from a posture scan. Because your feet are your foundation, changes in foot mechanics can affect areas higher up the body, including the knees, hips, pelvis, and low back.
Does the scan tell me if I need orthotics?
The scan provides valuable information about your feet and posture, but it is not the only factor we consider. We'll look at your scan results along with your symptoms, movement, and clinical assessment to determine whether custom orthotics may be appropriate for you.
What makes Foot Levelers orthotics different from store-bought inserts?
Store-bought inserts are generally designed for a broad range of people. Foot Levelers custom orthotics are designed around your individual needs, providing personalized support rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
Can orthotics help with knee, hip, or back discomfort?
Your feet can influence how forces travel through the rest of your body. In some cases, providing appropriate foot support may help improve alignment and movement throughout the lower body. We'll determine whether orthotics may be helpful based on your individual assessment.
Do I have to purchase orthotics after my scan?
No. Our goal is to help you understand what we're seeing and determine what may be appropriate for you. If we believe custom orthotics could be beneficial, we'll explain why and discuss your options with you.
