Whether you’re healing from an injury and need to focus on a specific area, or you’re just starting your fitness journey, Pilates can help you move better and build strength without pain. It is especially beneficial for seniors and anyone dealing with injuries or mobility challenges.

Custom Foot Orthotics
Custom-made foot orthotics are made specially for the patient following a biomechanical assessment by a specialist. Orthotics improve shock absorption, pressure distribution, and correcting mechanics to alleviate strained tissue, helping you get back to your active life. Custom foot orthotics are commonly used to relieve the symptoms of plantar fasciitis, arthritis, bunions, or back pain. The Common Sense Orthotics team of pedorthists personally custom make their orthotics from a three-dimensional model of the patient’s foot, allowing for access to their on-site lab to precise fine-tuning. Could you benefit from orthotics? Book an assessment today!

Swimming with Dentures
Swimming is a wonderful summer activity and a great way to stay cool during hot days. Swimming can impact denture wearers in several ways. *Water can disrupt the suction that keeps dentures in place, leading to loosening or dislodging. *Swimmers might accidentally swallow water, affecting denture fit and comfort. *Vigorous activities like diving can also cause dentures to shift. *Exposure to pools and natural water requires thorough cleaning afterward to remove contaminants. Denture adhesives can help secure dentures. Ensuring a good fit and maintaining proper hygiene are keys to enjoying swimming with dentures confidently.
