Provides all-round cushioning and added comfort to the heel and ankle helping to relieve pain related to plantar fasciitis and other injuries. Ultimate Performance Gel heel pads are recommended for?We recommend Ultimate Performance Gel heel pads for general comfort and injury prevention as well as help treating the following injuries: Bruised heelA bruised heel or Policeman's heel is an overuse injury where the protective fat pad under your heel becomes compressed. As a result bruising occurs as well as stress reaction injury to the calcaneus bone in your heel. Wear the Gel heel pad all the time until your symptoms resolve. Make sure you wear them in both feet because otherwise one leg is longer than the other, leading to secondary injuries. Plantar fasciitisPlantar fasciitis is the most common cause of pain under the heel. Gel heel pads relieve pressure on the painful part of your heel, allowing it to rest and begin to recover. If your feet overpronate or flatten as you walk, then consider full orthotic type insoles as well. Achilles tendonitisThe gel heel pad raises the heel causing your calf muscles to temporarily shorten. As a result this relieves strain on your Achilles tendon allowing it to rest and recover. Wear in both shoes until your symptoms resolve. Avoid long term use to avoid adaptive shortening of your calf muscles. The thin edge allows the insole to fit inside the shoe for better fit and comfort during wear. Wear with all types of footwear. Recommended for: extra cushioning, soft support and pain relief. Ideal for plantar fasciitis, heel spurs and bruised heels.
