Heel Pain Orthotics
Designed to address the source of discomfort, restore balance, and support all-day mobility
Designed to provide targeted heel relief and balanced foot support, this full-length orthotic is ideal for individuals with plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis, calcaneal spurs, or general heel discomfort. Its combination of cushioning, arch support, and metatarsal padding also helps manage biomechanical issues such as overpronation, flat feet (pes planus), and high arches (pes cavus).

Instructions for Use
-
Remove Existing Insoles
Take out any removable insoles from your shoes before inserting the orthotic. This ensures proper fit and prevents overcrowding. -
Insert the Orthotic Correctly
Place the orthotic into the shoe with the heel seated firmly at the back and the arch aligned with your natural arch. -
Check Fit Before Walking
Ensure the orthotic lies flat, does not slide, and does not curl at the edges. Your foot should feel supported but not unstable. -
Wear With Suitable Footwear
This orthotic is designed for shoes with limited space, but footwear should still be supportive with a firm heel counter. Avoid very soft, unsupportive shoes. -
Wear With Socks or Stockings
Wearing socks or stockings can help improve comfort and reduce friction during the break-in period.
Break-In Period
Because this orthotic features an arch support, it may feel firm or uncomfortable initially. This is normal and expected.
Recommended Break-In Schedule
-
Days 1–3: Wear for 1–2 hours per day
-
Days 4–6: Increase to 3–4 hours per day
-
Days 7–10: Gradually increase to all-day wear as tolerated
Important Tips
-
Mild arch or muscle soreness is common during the adjustment phase.
-
If discomfort becomes sharp or painful, remove the orthotics and reduce wear time the next day.
-
Do not attempt to “push through” significant pain — gradual adaptation is key.
Most users fully adapt within 1–2 weeks, after which the orthotic should feel supportive and comfortable. Following the break-in period, our orthotics can be worn during everyday activities, beginning with walking and standing, and gradually increasing activity levels.
Care & Maintenance
-
Wipe clean with a damp cloth as needed
-
Do not machine wash or soak
-
Air dry only — keep away from direct heat
-
Transfer between similar shoe types if required

Heel Pain Orthotics
Everything you need to know
Clear answers, clinically backed—so you can move forward with confidence.
How do I know which Orthotics are right for me?
We offer an easy-to-use interactive quiz that helps determine the best Orthotics for your needs. Answer a few quick questions, and we'll recommend the perfect fit for your condition.
Can I wear these Orthotics in any type of shoes?
No. Orthotics fit best in shoes with enough depth, a removable insole, and a rounded toe box—such as trainers, leather shoes, walking shoes and boots. If a shoe does not have enough space such as court shoes, or narrow-toed boots; a ¾ metatarsal-length orthotic is recommended to provide support while fitting more comfortably.
How long does it take to feel the benefits?
This varies from person to person and depends on factors such as the type and severity of the condition, how long it has been present, and individual lifestyle demands. It is recommended to give orthotics at least 8 weeks of consistent wear to assess their full effect
Are your Orthotics suitable for people with specific foot conditions?
Absolutely! Our Orthotics provide support and relief for common foot issues like plantar fasciitis, heel pain, flat feet, overpronation, ankle pain, toe pain and much more. Please complete our Quiz to find the best fit for you.
