    The place to get braces like the one you described is at an orthotic brace clinic.Usually your dr. especially an orthopedic doctor would know where a good orthotist is. Also your doctor would be able to precribe the right type of brace.You can look in the yellow pages under orthopedic appliances and find brace places or orthotic centers.
