INSOLES FOR FEET WITH PLANTAR FASCIITIS & HEEL SPUR SYNDROME

What is Plantar Fasciitis and Heel Spur syndrome?

Plantar Fasciitis syndrome is a painful condition in which the ligament that connects the heel bone to the toes and supports the foot arch is strained. This way, the person feels burning pain and stabbing in the heel area or in the ankles also, while standing or walking. 

This condition can occur to one foot or both feet.

Plantar Fasciitis is more common in middle-aged people. This is because the plantar fascia flexibility decreases and the heel’s protective fat pad gets thinner.

However, Plantar Fasciitis can also affect people of a younger age who stand, walk or run a lot, especially on hard surfaces.

In most cases, people who suffer from Plantar Fasciitis feel the most pain early in the morning and after activities that tire the feet.

Commonly associated with plantar fasciitis is heel spur. In this condition, calcium deposits built up on the underside of the calcaneus (heel bone), causing a bony protrusion. This protrusion, as seen on an x-ray, may stick out by as much as 1.25 cm.

How can Realinsoles help?

Realinsoles not only prevent the appearance of plantar fasciitis and heel spur, but also help to heal the condition. They provide the necessary support to the arch and soft cushioning to the heel area. This way they help remove stress on the plantar fascia muscle and the inflammation heals more quickly.
