Ability Superstore Xline Insoles Small 3-5

Product Information

All the great features of the Standard Line, but with extra wedges to adjust your hind foot to an improved position to change the way forces are applied to your foot and leg. The X-Line Standardis one of the most widely used insoles in the NHS and was designed in Britain by Healthy Step.

Insoles help improve foot function, but simple rehabilitation exercises get the essential supportive muscle building up to improve your natural foot support. They are very important and will reinforce the effect of the Healthy Step X-Line Extra insoles. We expect you’ll get good use of these has they have longevity and strength. They can cope with getting wet and muddy and are easy to clean with soapy water. Just let them naturally dry out after. Don’t heat them as that can change their shape. Sometimes steroid injections can control the pain, but shouldn’t be used on their own but in combination with the right shoes, exercises and insoles.

Therefore footwear and insoles that reduce strain and foot pain, support the arches, and exercises that strengthen the foot are usually the best combination. Strapping the foot up for a while can help too. The mid-foot/arch support provides superior stability and the anatomical heel cradle gives effective, rear-foot control – helping to keep the natural spring in your step and protecting the foot from potential damaging changes in your foot profile. Long periods of standing at work can also be more problematic. How long does plantar fasciitis take to heal?

By using our Foot Therapy Balls, the toe flexors become stronger allowing the foot to grip the floor during walking. This makes for a more efficient gait, helping you improve your posture. Using specially designed insoles to support the foot and aid muscle function under the foot helps the plantar fascia to repair this attachment point over time.

To heal up and settle down, the injury needs rest and time, but this is difficult with the foot as we are always putting weight on it, and too much rest can also weaken the foot causing further problems. Plantar fasciitis can affect all foot types from flat feet (pes planus) through to high arch feet (pes cavus) and everything between. Make walking, running and standing a pleasure again with the X-Line RIF insole, designed to improve your foot’s function and relieve symptoms of fatigue when you’re active.However to get the best effects for your Achilles problem, you need to locate your pain, as some exercises work better for one type of Achilles problem compared to another.

Getting the wedges in the right place depends on your gait (walking) pattern, or running technique, so unless you are very sure what you are doing, you should leave the first fitting of the wedging to an expert in gait analysis.The Pressure Perfecthas also become very popular with badminton, tennis players, and long distance runners. It seems everyone enjoys a little extra bounce in his or her day! The condition is caused by overstrain of an important fibrous band (plantar fascia or plantar aponeurosis) that runs from the heel under the foot and divides into slips running to each toe. Plantar Fasciitis may take anything between 6-12 months to heal but doing exercise activities along with using plantar fasciitis insoles may significantly speed up this healing. Please place the same wedging on you X-Line Extra as your clinician advised if you are fitting them yourself.
