Orthotics have been so helpful to me, especially for knee issues, and I can imagine they would help your balance too. If you want to naturally help yourself build intrinsic muscles to help you with balance, it's as simple as standing on one foot for as long as you can. Make sure you have something to grab if you feel yourself lose balance, but you can do this when brushing teeth, waiting for your turn to play pickleball, etc... It makes a huge difference to get muscles to assist you, as well as orthotics I reckon.
