Their streamlined construction reduces fatigue over long training blocks and high‑intensity sessions, allowing athletes to maintain efficient mechanics deep into a run.
Why they stand above traditional orthotics
- Exceptionally lightweight design that preserves the natural flex and speed of high‑performance footwear.

Aaron is the best. He truly knows what he’s doing and he couldn’t be a nicer guy. If I could rate PTI higher than 5 stars I would. I have had countless foot problems throughout the years as a basketball player and I know every time something comes up, Aaron will help me out and put a smile on my face. You won’t find a better foot doctor!
PTI Orthotics is so awesome. You have someone who literally makes your orthotics on site. He doesn't send it to a lab in a third world country or pick something up off the shelf. He takes the time to do a thorough exam and then provides you truly custom made orthotics that mold to your feet. Thanks Aaron
Aaron is very professional. I have been using his orthotics for many years hiking in rough terrain. They helped a great deal with some issues I was having with one ankle. I recently purchased a pair for my bike. I highly recommend this business.
A long overdue but nevertheless heartfelt thanks to Aaron from our whole family! Over two decades, you gave all four of us pain-free running, hiking, distance walking, tennis, weight-lifting and thus, enjoyment of life through your perfectly-tailored orthotics! AND also, you patiently adjusted them as needed over the years. Furthermore, you always explained how various tendons and muscles influenced the shape of the orthotic, thus motivating us to do our stretches! We're looking forward to at least some years more of your invaluable service and advice, even from afar! A Front Range institution! From Alcinda Cundiff and family.

Hand‑crafted custom foot orthotics are shaped precisely to your unique anatomy, giving you more accurate support and better alignment than mass‑produced inserts. Their tailored design can improve comfort, reduce pain, and enhance overall foot function in a way off‑the‑shelf options simply can’t match.

CNC machining creates custom foot orthotics with exceptional precision because it follows exact digital measurements rather than relying on manual shaping. This automated process reduces human error and produces more consistent, highly accurate results for every pair.

Non weight bearing neutral position casting has been the gold standard since the 1970's and is now being phased out by non weight bearring 3D scanning. Superior intra / inter tester repeatability. Captures intersegmental malalignments within the foot.

Superior shock absorption while disapating ground reaction forces. Enhanced durabily and will not compress like foam cushioning materials. Superior soft tissue supplement.

By incorporating different densities of materials within the structure of the orthotic, these devices can offer specific areas of the foot targeted cushioning and support. Bony protrusions can be accommodated while supporting the other critical areas of the foot. This is not possible without a positive model. Direct molding techniques do not create a positive model of the foot.
X
Long lasting ultra strong designs that hold the angles molded and machined into the orthotics not possible when using direct molding techniques because no foot models are created with those older systems. These materials mold at 350F and higher and cannot be used in direct mold systems.
X
Ultra‑strong, thin carbon‑fiber composites provide superior performance in certain orthotic applications because they deliver exceptional support without adding bulk. This allows for precise biomechanical control while keeping the device lightweight and low volume.

Sport‑specific orthotics are beneficial because they’re designed to match the unique movements, forces, and demands of a particular activity, giving athletes more precise support. This targeted design can improve performance, reduce fatigue, and lower the risk of injury by keeping the feet and body aligned during sport‑specific motions.

Pathology‑specific custom foot orthotics are beneficial because they’re designed to address the exact mechanical issues caused by a particular condition rather than using a one‑type-fixes‑all approach. This targeted design can reduce symptoms more effectively and support better long‑term function by matching the orthotic to the patient’s specific needs.
