A wedge is a piece of material put under the insole of the shoe (either on the inside or outside), that helps position your foot into a more neutral position. Wedges can also be added to the exterior of the sole, but this is less common.
A permanent internal modification by the addition of support along the longitudinal arch of a shoe. Adds additional arch support when needed.
A permanent, external modification to the outsole and midsole to add a prescribed amount of height to one or both shoes to compensate for a leg length discrepancy. Most of the time, we peel off the original sole, add the lift, and reattach the original sole. Prescription preferred.
A permanent, external modification to the outsole and midsole to widen the inside (medial) or outside (lateral) part of the shoe. This helps stabilize the shoe by widening the base of the sole, and prevent severe overpronation or supination. Prescription preferred.
A permanent, external modification to either the inside (medial) or outside (lateral) part of the shoe to add stability and strengthen the structure of the shoe. Prescription preferred.

A non-permanent, internal modification that adds a prescribed amount of height to one or both shoes to address a minor leg length discrepancy. Used as a pair, heel lifts can help alleviate Achilles tendonitis. Prescription preferred.
A graphite plate is a non-permanent modification designed to stiffen the shoe. Usually added with a rocker shoe as to not completely limit mobility. Most commonly used for people with hallux limitus and met head fractures.
