Heel wedges, or foot inserts, are used
to treat a large number of different orthopedic ailments. The
heel wedge is used to treat things such as leg length
discrepancy, lower back fatigue, poor posture, Achilles
tendonitis, post-surgically, and foot or heel pain just to name
a few. The benefits offered by use of a heel wedge are
tremendous. Upon using a heel wedge you may experience such
things as feel relief from pain. You may start to notice
positive changes in your posture and the way your walk becomes
more fluid and less difficult. If you are recovering from
certain surgeries you will see how quickly your healing is with
the use of heel wedges or foot inserts.
There’s a reason the term “Achilles
heel” is associated with a weakness in modern times.
Unfortunately, Achilles injuries are very, very common. Those
who have suffered an Achilles heel injury will greatly benefit
from the use of a heel wedge. A heel wedge, or foot insert,
works to keep your body weight off your heels. This reduces the
amount of pressure you have on your heels and Achilles tendon
and allows for healing of Achilles injuries.
As mentioned earlier, heel wedges are
used frequently as a post-surgical therapeutic tool. Those
who’ve had surgery on soft tissue or bony structure of heel will
benefit significantly from using heel wedges. The reason using
heel wedges post-surgically is so important is because it allows
for shifting of weight off your heel and onto the top or middle
of the foot. This allows for faster healing and decreases the
chances of re-injury.
Our heel wedges help to support the heel
area. The heel wedges are easily moveable between all your
favorite pairs of shoes. If you are looking for a more
permanent solution, you can affix the heel wedge with
semi-permanent tape. The primary function of a heel wedge
insert is maintaining an incline on the heel in order to
decrease stress. They are designed to distribute weight evenly
over the entire foot. At FitFeet we know that using a heel
wedge can be a great way to alleviate pain, improve posture and
promote healing. That is why we are pleased to bring this
wonderful product to you.
