It can help relieve foot pain associated with arthritis, tendonitis. It is also designed to protect the feet of people with diabetes.

They can help take away heel pain, they can help realign the foot, and by doing that it can help decrease pressure in the knee, hip or back. We recommend custom orthotics as well but if you would like to try an orthotic device without incurring the cost of the custom device this is the device for you. They are easily transferable from shoe to shoe and help decrease foot and ankle pain.

Forefoot Pad
This is a ¼” thick foam pad that has a ring on it for a toe. Once this goes around a toe the foam is held underneath the forefoot. Most people with neuromas or pain in the forefoot benefit from this type of device. Often times as people age the fat pad in the forefoot begins to get thinner. This can supplement that thinning process and decrease pain in the foot.
