Firm orthotics actually distribute the forces evenly. Whereas most custom orthotics maintain a corrected posture of the foot during standing, Sole Supports orthotics maintain this optimal foot posture through- out the whole walking cycle, from standing through ‘swing phase’. This is very impor- tant especially at heel strike when the heel first hits the ground.
People may experience many positive results from wearing custom orthotics in their shoes that include reduced back pain and foot pain, reduced shin splints, as well as improved endurance, faster running, and better athletic performance. Even sciatica or disc degeneration can be improved by proper dissipation of these forces from the ground.
