Metzger’s Footcare
is about you, the customer. We are in business because we care
about you. If we do a good job, we have made your daily life
better. I could go into all the foot problems that are out there:
plantar fasciitis, metatarsalgia, the list goes on.
We at Metzger’s
Footcare can help to alleviate these problems through the use of
corrective devices and shoes. My name is Jason Metzger; I have been
in the shoe business for over 25 years and have been a Certified
Pedorthist for over 5 years. A Certified Pedorthist has been
trained in Pathology, anatomy, shoe construction, and modification,
making custom orthotics, and being able to read doctors
prescriptions. So come to our store and check us out. We will do an
assessment of your structure to see if we feel we can help toy make
your feet and joints happy thru our abilities.
The store will
carry many euro-comfort brands as these have excellent support to
them. By wearing such shoes it can be of benefit to your overall
health. Some brands we will be carrying are: Dansko, Finn Comfort,
Think, Naot
We will also be
doing Diabetic Shoes through Medicare. If you are on Medicare Part
B, then you might be eligible to get a portion of the shoes paid
for. And if you have a supplemental insurance, sometimes they will
pick up the rest. A Doctor must certify that you are Diabetic and
that you need the shoes. The shoes that qualify for this program
are called extra depth shoes, and are also good for people that are
not diabetic. They can be beneficial to people with arthritis, foot
deformities or anyone that just wants a good comfortable shoe. Our
main brand in this area will be P.W. Minor.
Athletes tend to
have many problems with their feet and joints because they put
additional stress on these areas. The proper shoes and correct
support can greatly affect their performance. At Metzger’s Footcare
we will put you in the correct shoe for your structure and
problems, and add a support of some sort if necessary to create an
even better fit. The brands we will carry will be Brooks Saucony
and Asics
Even if you have
the best shoe sometimes it is not enough and you need extra
support. That is where inserts come in. We do custom and
over-the-counter orthotics. Custom orthotics are the ultimate
solution. These are specific to your feet, and will redistribute
your pressure and help with your alignment. Proper alignment will
take undue pressure off your joints, allowing them to work the way
they were designed to - not the way your body has made them work.
We will have many different ways to construct your orthotics and
then fine-tune them once you have gotten used to them.
We are here to
help you feel better. Don’t suffer with pain if you don’t have to.
We can help. Many doctors send us their patients because they have
confidence that we can be a part of their team and make you, their
patient, feel better and have a better quality of life. Come see
us, give us a call, we will answer any of your questions to the
best of our abilities. If we don’t have the answer we will find out
for you. Our goal is to increase your comfort level, so help us to
help you. Here at Metzger’s Footcare, you’re sure to walk out
better than you walked in.
