The exercise program that I have followed for many years is very important to me, and has become even more important as I age. Several years ago, I developed pain in both my knees due to arthritis. As it got worse, I was not able to run at all. My doctor told me there was not much I could do beyond considering knee replacement.

I had "runner's knee" and was experiencing a lot of pain until I got orthotics from The Foot Mechanic. I have no knee problems now and I can run without pain!

Began working with Brett in 2002 after suffering for several months of IT band issues. I had tried nurmerous treatments for this injury and was frustrated and down to the wire for an upcoming race. The evaluation, followup and advice (as wel as the orthotics) were all top-notch. My IT band issues were resolved and I updated my orthodics again in 2008 through Brett. I recently saw him again for...

In 2009 I developed functional problems in my feet that kept me from training and competing in triathlons. I began searching for a way to fix my problems and came to know Dr. Purdom. After a complete evaluation Dr. Purdom found my problem and prescribed custom orthotics. Once I got my orthotics and broke them in my functional problems were fixed and I was able to continue to train and...

I have used orthodics from the Foot Mechanic for over 5 years and recently purchased my second pair. I have been extremely happy with this product. I have a pretty significant leg length discrepancy and the orthodics have allowed me to run and work long hours on my feet as a nurse without the hip and back pain I was previously experiencing. I would not be able to run without them! I was also...

I was abnormally wearing down the heels of my shoes on the outside while walking and golfing. I think the custom fit orthotics from The Foot Mechanic have improved my issue 100%. I would absolutely refer The Foot Mechanic to family or friends. I was referred by a patient of The Foot Mechanic and I would do the same.

The Foot Mechanic has helped me tremendously since 2002. At that time I struggled with an IT band injury. After a thorough evaluation by Dr. Purdom and fitting for custom orthotics, I was able to successfully complete several more Ironman distance triathlons. The staff at The Foot Mechanic are knowledgeable, professional and ready to help resolve injuries.

I purchased my orthotics at the Denver Ski Expo. They dramatically improved my skiing by squaring my stance. Much better edge control!

It is hard to get health care providers to listen. They hear. They don’t listen. The best thing I can say is he listened to me. He was present- and acknowledged that I, the patient, did know something about my running mechanics problems. I suffered from IT band, knee, shin, and SI joint pain. The session was extremely valuable to me. I took away a lot of...
