Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar Fasciitis Insoles
Plantar Fasciitis is a common foot condition which affects the thick band of tissue along the bottom of the foot, known as the plantar fascia. This condition can be very painful and affect day-to-day mobility.
When the plantar fascia becomes inflamed or strained, it can cause sharp heel pain which often comes on after periods of rest or activity. A plantar fasciitis insole can help relieve symptoms by cushioning the heel and redistributing pressure. Plantar fasciitis insoles can also help prevent plantar fasciitis from worsening, by supplying proper arch support which reduces stress on the plantar fascia.

Plantar Fasciitis FAQ's
Do orthotic insoles really help?
Yes, orthotic insoles can be a highly effective way in relieving symptoms as well as reducing the risk of plantar fasciitis. These insoles are specifically shaped to help support the base of your foot and distribute body weight evenly, which can help relieve strain on the plantar fascia.
What's the difference between plantar fasciitis insoles and inserts
The terms inserts and insoles are often used interchangeably, however, an insole refers to a piece of material that is placed inside of a shoe for comfort and support in various foot conditions (including plantar fasciitis). A shoe insert is an umbrella term for an element added to a shoe to provide comfort and support, which includes insoles as well as heel cups, heel lifts, and metatarsal pads.
How do I know what size insole to buy?
Typically, the size of your insole should be your shoe size. However, if you are in between sizes, you should opt to size-up in insoles as opposed to sizing down.
