Heel Pain

Heel pain / spurs are cause by falling arches. The arch tendon, which attaches to the heel bone, will build up bone to reattach the arch tendon to the bone.

Custom Orthotics can have heel spur cut-out accommodations.

Regain a spring in your step to avoid your arch collapsing and fascia tendon stretching that creates heel pain.

Achilles Tendinitis

  • This condition is a result of the foot collapsing while waling which over stretches the Achilles Tendon just around the ankle.

  • Using custom orthotics stops the foot from collapsing and relaxes the pull on the tendon thereby stopping pain.



Heel Spurs

  • Orthotics support the arch tendon keeping it from pulling away from the bone.

  • When a foot bone is exposed to constant stress, calcium deposits build up on the bottom of the heel bone.

  • Repeated damage can cause these deposits to pile up on each other, causing a spur-shaped deformity, called a calcaneal (or heel) spur.

Heel Pain

  • On the bottom of your feet are flexor muscles and a thick band of tissue called the Plantar fascia. When the foot collapses, the arch lowers putting abnormal stress on these muscles and fascia.

  • Orthotics stop this collapse (pronation) and thereby relieves the pain.

Our custom orthotics are the best and we guarantee you will be rid of pain in the heel.

Sever's Disease

  • This is a condition normally experienced with children affecting the growth plate of the heel.

  • The root cause is overactivity of the Achilles Tendon insertion.

  • The best treatment is to use custom foot orthotics which stops the arch from collapsing and thereby reduces the pull on the Achilles tendon.

  • Our custom pediatric orthotics are extremely effective in stopping this condition.

If you have your child wear orthotics, the pain from Severs disorder will stop.

How long does Sever's disease usually last?

  • Typically pain lasts for 2-3 months.

  • Symptoms can last longer in some individuals and you can speed recovery by using custom Orthotics which treats the cause of the pain and not just the symptom.

  • Many time symptoms are gone instantly once custom orthotics are used.



What age does Severs disease go away?


  • Sever's disease usually goes away when the growth plate (apophysis) matures, which should be by age 22 in males and females.

  • You can speed up healing by getting your child into custom orthotics.





Heel Pain Causes

Heel Pain Reasons

  • Heel pain is most often caused by plantar fasciitis, a condition that results from over pulling of the planar fascia as a result of the foot collapsing (foot pronation).

  • Heel pain may also be due to other causes, such as a stress fracture,tendonitis, arthritis, nerve irritation or, rarely, a cyst.

Achilles Heel Pain

  • “Achilles tendon is over stretched and inflammation occurs. Sometimes a partial tear or complete tear of the tendon can occur which is a major issue that many times requires surgery and lengthy casing until the tendon reattaches and heals.

  • Control foot movements with Custom Orthotics is the ideal method for stopping and preventing surgery and lengthy periods of pain and disability.

  • Tendons take a long time to heal. You must stop excessive pulling on the tendon using custom Orthotics.

Heel Pain in the Morning

  • Pain in the morning is the result of the inflammation at the heel becoming inflamed and your pain centers in the brain are at their lowest level.

  • The typical experience is upon weight bearing you feel intense pain in the heel and then as you walk in it, the pain centers of the brain become adjusted to the pain you experience some reduction as you walk and stand.

  • Custom Orthotics will create a relief of the weight bearing condition so that wen you sleep, the pain reduces upon early weight bearing because the tissues are calming down the inflammation because the orthotics are reducing weight bearing stress of the heel.

We guarantee that custom orthotics will get rid of your pain and reduce the chance of surgery and long term pain and disability.
