The answer to this question can be different for each person, but there are many general benefits that arch support shoe inserts can offer. One professional who can help you learn how such inserts can benefit you is a certified pedorthist. 

What is pedorthics?

Pedorthics is a health discipline that focuses on using foot orthotics to help people with their foot problems. Certified pedorthists are health care professionals who are trained to practice pedorthics. These professionals can help design, build, modify and fit arch support orthotic shoe inserts that are customized to you.

Four benefits that custom arch support shoe inserts can offer

Few people realize just how beneficial custom arch support shoe inserts can be. Some of the benefits that these products can offer include: 

  1. Better pressure distribution — Foot arches that aren’t well supported can collapse over time. This can lead to your heels and toes absorbing more pressure as you walk or run. Orthotics that support the arch of your foot are designed to help take the pressure off your toes and heels. 
  1. Increased stability — Arch support orthotics can also help improve foot and ankle stability, reducing the aches and pains that foot and ankle instability can cause. 
  1. Reduced foot pain — Collapsed arches can lead to issues like plantar fasciitis. This foot condition occurs when the plantar fascia becomes inflamed, and the inflammation triggers pain in the arch and heel. Custom arch support orthotics can help reduce strain on the plantar fascia, which can help reduce inflammation and pain.
  1. Decreased risk of lower extremity issues — Not everyone is aware that a problem with your foot arch can lead to problems in other parts of the body. Some of the issues that arch problems can trigger include: 

One of the biggest benefits of using arch support orthotics is that they can decrease your risk of all these issues.
