Custom Foot Orthotics in Shelby Charter Township, MI
Foot Pain
There are 26 bones in the foot and each one is capable of causing foot pain. Millions of Americans each year complain of having pain in their feet or ankles. You feet are the foundation of your entire body and have a direct impact all the way through the spine. Stabilizing the your postural foundation will not only help relieve pain and stress in your feet but can also aide in pain felt in the lower back and spine.
Common types of foot pain are:
Heel Pain: If pain is located in your heel then you may have a condition called plantar fasciitis. Plantar fasciitis is an inflammation of the band of tissue (fascia) that reaches from the heel to the toes and supports the muscles and arch of the foot. Proper orthotics can help to alleviate and possibly eliminate this pain.
Ball of Foot Pain: Ill fitting shoes are often the cause of this type of pain. Strenuous activity can also be the cause as a result of unusual stress caused by running or jumping to name an example.
Arch Pain: Plantar fasciitis is also the most common cause of this type of pain, it effects the heel, arch or both. It is important to see Dr. Arnold right away if you are feeling this type of pain for an extended period of time.
Toe Pain: Although not always the case, gout (a form of arthritis) can cause pain in the toes. Avoiding specific types of food as guided by Dr. Smaldone along with rest and ice can help to alleviate the symptoms of gout.
Custom Orthotics at Washington Family Chiropractic
We welcome new patients to Washington Family Chiropractic for postural exams to determine their chiropractic needs. If you’ve never had your feet scanned, you probably don’t know what they are supposed to look like. This new technology provides insight into hidden structural imbalances that may not be apparent to standard evaluations.
Once you have been scanned, Dr. Arnold can discuss options to order your pair of customized orthotics. These orthotics are far superior to anything you would find at a general store and can help to alleviate foot, ankle and back pain effectively.

I was referred to Dr. Arnold by a friend and co-worker when I had hurt my back. Dr Arnold and his staff are amazing. After meeting with him you will soon realize not only that he take his job seriously but that his passion for chiropractic care and over all health wellness is very welcoming. His staff is very friendly and very accommodating. You’ll receive 5 star treatment here at a very competitive price.
My wife Sandy and both of our young adult children go to Dr. Arnold for adjustments..they are extremely happy with him, they have shown great results in the relief of migraine headaches, backaches, numbness in arms and sleeping much better at night. The staff and atmosphere of the office is very warm and welcoming. I highly recommend Dr. Arnold and his staff to ensure that you will be receiving the best of Chiropractic care ,from a very kind and caring Dr. and staff….
I had my first visit for Chiropractic care with Dr. Arnold in August of 2016. I went in hoping he could help me with lower back issues that had been plaguing me for months at that point. His office is clean and cozy and his staff are friendly and accommodating.
He ran a couple tests, got some x-rays and took the time to explain to me the type of benefits that I would experience through chiropractic care. At this point he hadn’t even adjusted me but his thoroughness helped set my mind at ease and gave me the confidence that I would be feeling better soon.
I’ve heard that chiropractic care can provide immediate relief from neck or back pain and discomfort. Honestly I was skeptical of it. Additionally, I was nervous at my first adjustment. I had never had my neck or back adjusted by a Chiropractor before. Needless to say, after my first adjustment, which was completely painless, I did feel some relief from the discomfort in my back. BUT — I should emphasize that after approximately 6 visits, I definitely felt much-much better. I actually felt better after each adjustment as my body started to communicate with itself more efficiently — but– it has to be the consistency of seeing him through the plan of care that Dr. Arnold established that has really made all the difference in the way I feel.
At this point, I’ve had over 20 adjustments from Dr. Arnold. I’ve graduated to incorporating daily stretches and range of motion exercises with my adjustments and as I continue through his care, I certainly expect to continue feeling better.
Thank you Dr. Arnold for teaching about and providing me with extraordinary chiropractic care.
I’m always very pleased with the care I receive from Dr. Arnold. He is extremely professional and genuinely cares about his patients. The office is also very welcoming and comfortable, so I enjoy going every week!
Best chiropractor around! I always leave feeling great and Dr. Arnold treats his patients like family
Professional, courteous, knowledgeable and genuinely caring! I initially came 3 years ago because of back pain from a car accident and thinking I just needed a quick fix. Have been coming every week since then and feel better than I have in years. I would highly recommend Dr. Arnold to anyone seeking a better quality of life and health.
Dr. Arnold is not only a great chiropractor, but he is also a person with great values and character. I fully trust him with my care and I admire his passion for healing people. He has helped me with some of my back and neck pain as well as with tips on how to change to a healthier lifestyle. Thank you Dr. Arnold for being such a positive influence in my life!
I am so thankful for Dr.Arnold and his staff! He provides such professional care and it has physically made such a difference in my life and my children. The office staff are always delightful! My kids battle over who gets to get adjusted first!😊
Been going here for about 15 years, always feel better when I leave. Very friendly staff.
My wife has been going here for over 10 years. Dr Arnold has helped with her migraines among other things. Instead of weekly migraines they now come less and less. I was a non believer until I hurt my back and my wife insisted I start coming with her. So I did and it definitely changed my thinking of chiropractors. I joined along with my twins. We all go as a family now.
It boosts our immunities. We definitely can tell a difference with our health. We hardly get sick and when we do it doesn’t last that long.
Dr. Duane has done a fantastic job of helping me with my back and shoulder pain. He has also helped out my son in the past when he had a sports related injury with his back. He provides detailed personal care that you don’t find with other chiropractors. He also provides exercise and nutritional advice. If you are seeking chiropractic care I highly recommend you pay him a visit.
Dr. Arnold and his entire staff are very knowledgeable and professional but also kind and very caring, not only concerning your spine and overall wellness, but adding a personnel and comfortable feeling when you’re here. Three of my family members see Dr. Arnold at The Washington Chiropractic Wellness Center currently, and we have been coming here for about a year. My daughter has been in two car acidents which Dr. Arnold treated her both times with. Our overall health partly depends on our chiropractic care so I’m so glad I’ve decided to come here and stay. Sincerely satified 😌
Dr. Arnold has helped me whenever a problem flares up and I find myself almost unable to move. If I would keep going after he gets me walking again, I would be so much better. When I stop going and after 3-6 months need to return, Dr. Arnold is not judgemental. His staff are also just as nice. I forget my appointment at times, and they never make me feel that I have thrown things off. Dr. Arnold and his staff personify the word ” Caregivers”.
Best chiropractor I’ve ever been to! From very flexible hours to complimentary coffee and accommodating kid’s area, this place literally goes above and beyond. If you live in this area, there’s no reason to go elsewhere!
When I first arrived at the office I could not even stand up! I was assessed and had the first adjustment and immediately could stand straighter and in much less pain! Now on maintenance visits – can’t recommend this office and Dr. Arnold enough!!
I went to plenty of different doctors and nothing really helped until I decided to try a chiropractor, they are always accommodating to my schedule and I barely ever have to wait, always in and out and always feel better after an adjustment.
I have been seeing Dr. Arnold for 12 + years. I used to think a chiropractor just ‘cracked’ your back. Although he has helped me with neck pain, there probably isn’t a part of my body he hasn’t helped! With nutrition information, exercises and adjustments my whole mind and body are helped. I was diagnosed with MS 20 years ago and tell everyone that without chiropractic I wouldn’t be as healthy as I am now. It has kept my symptoms at bay. The staff is so friendly and helpful that it is hard to leave there without a smile on your face! Thanks to everyone there!
