Heel That PainHeel That Pain Plantar Fasciitis Insoles | Heel Seats Foot Orthotic Inserts, Heel Cups for Heel Pain and Heel Spurs | Patented, Clinically Proven, 100% Guaranteed (Blue, Medium)

I had high hopes for these heel cups, looking at the reviews and the very generous return policy.They're well made (I purchased the "firm" version) and feel sturdy. They fit into the shoes I wear most regularly easily, and can be transferred from one pair to another without issue.Initially wearing the insoles felt nice - I think that "fascia bar" part of the insole was really helpful in helping my foot feel supported.However, wearing these insoles while out and about has been downright painful. More painful than is normal for me with PF. A short walk (around 2 miles or so) will leave me hobbling towards the end. I have to ice my feet after walking in these for a few hours.I've had flatish feet for a long time, and usually just buy 3/4 arch support insoles, which are mostly OK. I had hoped the Heel brand would be a good replacement. However, the insoles feel as though they are exacerbating the condition, as I struggle to walk after wearing these and then going barefoot in the house. It's like I've begun stepping on sharp daggers under each heel. My PF has never behaved like this before, so I'm concerned I may be making it worse somehow.I will look to return the heel cups, as I don't think they're right for my feet. I had high hopes, and in all fairness, the design and look of the item is great. They appear well- and quality-made. If your feet respond better to them than mine, I think you'd find them therapeutic and of good value.

I have been having heel pain for the past 7 months and have tried physiotherapy, including a set of shock-wave therapy treatments. Nothing has worked so far. I decided to try these insoles in the hopes that they would help. I found them very comfortable to wear and had no trouble adjusting to them on either foot (heel pain is only on one foot). They fit better into my shoes than any other insole or heel cushion I have tried, so I was very pleased about that. I have been wearing them for some time now but unfortunately have not seen any change - no relief at all from my heel pain. Back to the drawing board. :(

This product did not work for me - it did not relieve my PF pain and I found the heel cups moved around constantly in my shoes making them uncomfortable to wear. However, the seller honoured the money back guarantee without any quibble and clearly based on reviews many others have had much more success with the product than I did. On that basis it would seem there is nothing to lose by trying them.

They do relieve the pain, but only if I wear thin socks. If I wear thick socks, the subtle curve of the cups don't have an effect. Overall, I'm able to walk a lot better with them.

Easy to use

I've been wearing these insoles for over 3 months now. I wear them in my slippers and in any pair of shoes I wear out (which is mostly my sneakers these days).These insoles haven't cured my Plantar Fasciitis, which I was originally hoping they would do. Unfortunately, my PF is requiring shockwave therapy to fix the issue. However, these insoles are a lifer saver! I have very little pain when I walk in them and I'm never not using them. I'm used to doing a lot of physical activity, running etc. Now I'm walking only 30 mins a day and I feel these insoles help keep me from damaging my PF any further when I do walk. I did forget to put the insoles in my shoes one day and had to catch a train and couldn't go back to get them. By the end of the day I was in terrible pain having walked around for over an hour.I keep these insoles in my Birkenstock slippers which really makes a difference, as I have hardwood floors and was previously walking barefoot until I was told not too by the doctor. They do relieve the pain as it says and I'm using these as part of my shockwave treatment so that I don't do any further damage to my foot when I walk.The insoles are a bit thinner than I expected but I've not used anything like this before so I'm not sure what the look and feel should be. I feel they are worth the money.

I was very sceptical about these, having bought everything for plantar fasciitis pain relief that exists in the world, with no joy.I have been wearing these for over a month, and initially, they were a bit uncomfortable. But after a couple of days, you get used to them and genuinely don’t even notice them anymore. And they work *amazingly* well. You’ll notice that after your first day of wearing them. I find my offending foot doesn’t hurt *at all* the day after I wear these. However, if I spend a day indoors without wearing these at all, the plantar fascia pain comes back slightly the next day. So I’ve actually just bought a pair of the indoor heel seats by this company.I am a keen runner and have been able to run 12k a day, four or five times a week, without any significant pain (possibly a little niggle here and there, but these last few days have been zero pain).I used to wake up and have to hop to the bathroom on my one good foot, and now I can just walk straight there, like in the old days, before I had any heel pain!I went to the hospital last week for the steroid injection, (which had been booked in Jan) but when they did the ultrasound they said my plantar fascia looked really healthy and they didn’t need to go through with the injection in the end.These have literally changed my life. I highly recommend. (Along with a bit of ice for the heel and an ibuprofen just in case, if you’re into running).

I got this to try and honestly wasn't disappointed with the result after wearing them in my work shoes at all. Fitting perfectly in the heel area and definitely makes difference but little bit strange for first time to get used to it. As long as in the right position you won't recognise is in your shoes. When I walk it does not make strange noise either. Overall a good product only little bit pricy I think.
