What Our Podiatrist Says
The HeelFixKit insole is designed to bring the symptoms of plantar fasciitis under control.
The plantar fascia is a fibrous sheet that runs from the underside of the heel bone to each toe joint. It helps the foot shock absorb and remain stable while it is on the ground. It is under considerable stress under forces from forward ankle motion and especially at the point where the heel lifts from the ground.
By incorporating features that reduce the amount of ankle forward motion before the heel lifts and by making heel lift easier, the HeelFixKit insole can reduce strain within the plantar fascia. This allows the body to repair damage to the plantar fascia where it attaches to the heel bone.
