Orthopedic heel pads
When should you buy an orthopedic heel pad?
The need to buy heel pads is usually dictated by one of three main functions, which they perform brilliantly.
- Cushioning and protection. The heel pad creates a soft "cushion" under the heel. It absorbs the shock load that occurs with each step, which is vital for relieving inflamed fascia.
- Correction of heel position. The heel pad can have a wedge-shaped shape, which gently corrects the inward (pronation) or outward (supination) tilt of the heel, preventing the development of deformities.
- Compensation for leg length differences. In some cases, a heel pad is used to correct pelvic and spinal misalignment caused by a slight difference in leg length.
If your problem is a complex arch disorder, such as flat feet, then in addition to heel pads, you should consider full-fledged orthopedic insoles for flat feet, which support the entire foot.
Our range is designed for comprehensive health care. For example, for those suffering from fatigue and swelling caused by venous insufficiency, we offer compression stockings – this is an excellent way to complement the relief provided by orthopedics.
Heel pads for shoes: how to choose the perfect material
When choosing, it's important to pay attention to the material, as it determines the comfort and durability of the product. Our models are made from modern, wear-resistant materials.
- Silicone and gel are ideal for maximum cushioning. They are soft, invisible, and provide excellent shock absorption, which is especially important if you're looking for a solution for heel spurs.
- Latex and polyurethane are highly wear-resistant and are used for wedge-shaped models, where correction and stable support are key.
Depending on your goal, you can buy a localized heel pad or a model with high sides for better stabilization. However, if a heel spur is the cause of your discomfort, we recommend checking out the orthopedic insoles for heel spurs section for a comprehensive solution.
Of course, you're looking for a reliable supplier with a quality guarantee. We offer a wide selection of models, and you'll always find the perfect orthopedic heel pad at a price that fits your budget and comfort needs.
