How do custom orthotics help plantar fasciitis?

Inflammation of the plantar fascia, a bundle of tissue that runs across the bottom of the foot, is a condition that can cause severe and debilitating pain. Called plantar fasciitis, this condition typically results in a stabbing heel pain that can make it difficult to walk, run, jump or even stand. It generally develops as a result of overuse of these muscles and is particularly common in athletes like runners, baseball players and tennis players. 

While it can be very painful, the good news is that plantar fasciitis is also highly treatable. If you are dealing with pain that has not improved in a few days to a week, it is highly recommended to see a qualified medical professional for diagnosis and treatment. Along with rest, cold compression, stretching and elevating the foot, many sufferers also turn to custom orthotics. 

Custom orthotic insoles for plantar fasciitis sufferers

Custom orthotics are made to the exact specifications of a wearer’s foot and are made out of high-grade materials. While orthotic insoles can’t cure or correct plantar fasciitis, they can offer the following major benefits: 

• Increased comfort 
• Better support for the heel, arch and midfoot
• Added stability to promote natural foot mechanics

The goal of custom orthotics is to promote comfort and support, relieving plantar fasciitis pain while the foot heals and other treatment measures are attempted.
