Active Orthopaedic is owned and operated by Adam Janke, Certified Pedorthist, C Ped (C).

I graduated on the Dean’s List from the University of Western Ontario with an Honors Kinesiology degree, prior to beginning the two-year clinical residency program that is required to become a fully Certified Pedorthist, C Ped (C). I have worked and consulted in clinics in Ottawa, rural Ontario, Toronto, and Vancouver and been exposed to a wide variety of clinical methods and treatment protocols.

As a Canadian Board Certified Pedorthist, C Ped (C), I specialize in assessing lower-limb skeletal alignment, movement patterns, general foot function and how the feet interact with the rest of the body. From an assessment of these factors I determine a person’s need for custom foot orthotics, custom or therapeutic bracing products, specialized or individually specific footwear, soft-tissue management and referral to other health practitioners where necessary. For a more detailed description of what an assessment entails, please refer to the Services page.

I am an avid runner focusing primarily on trail events. My most recent race was a 50 mile ultramarathon in the Marin Headlands just outside of San Francisco, CA.

Our Philosophy

At Active Orthopaedic we believe in an integrative model of health care. We view ourselves as part of the overall team of health practitioners you can turn to when addressing your individual biomechanical needs, be that coping with an injury or painful symptom or when taking a preventative approach to your health. Your feet are one of the most important considerations when assessing your biomechanics, but other variables must be taken into account further up the kinetic chain, such as muscular and fascial tension in your lower limbs, hip alignment, muscular imbalances, and previous injuries. During your assessment we analyze your entire biomechanical chain, not just your feet. We ensure that any factors requiring treatment or analysis by another practitioner are identified and addressed. Through our referral network of health practitioners within the community, we ensure you have access to the best services for your specific needs so you can LIVE YOUR LIFE to the fullest.
