Arch pain and plantar fasciitis are among the most common causes of foot discomfort. When the plantar fascia, the band of tissue connecting your heel to your toes, becomes inflamed from overuse, poor footwear, or lack of support, it can lead to sharp heel pain and aching arches. Left untreated, plantar fasciitis can make standing, walking, or running increasingly difficult.
PowerStep® orthotic insoles for plantar fasciitis and arch pain are podiatrist-designed with a patented arch shape and stabilizing heel cradle. These features help properly align the foot, reduce strain on the plantar fascia, and provide lasting relief from heel pain, arch pain, and overpronation. With cushioning for comfort and firm support for stability, PowerStep insoles keep the foot supported throughout the day to both relieve pain and help prevent it from returning.
