PRODUCT INFORMATION
Unrivalled arch support
Controls overpronation
Alleviates pain
Prevents future injury
Extensive patient trials
Developed by clinical experts and based on UK academic research, these accurately profiled insoles will reduce pronation and allow the lower limb to deal effectively with the abnormal forces placed on the knee during physical activities. A proven and permanent fix for Iliotibial Band Syndrome.
They fit perfectly into a wide range of footwear and will work consistently and indefinitely - meaning you will never need to replace them.
Soft, non-supportive insoles will be ineffective at treating Iliotibial Band Syndrome.
ABOUT ILLIOTIBIAL BAND SYNDROME
The ITB extends from the muscles of your hip, along the lateral side of your thigh and knee and attaches to the tibia. Its function is to stabilise the knee, but it can become inflamed when it is pulled in directions that it does not want to go.
Symptoms are a stinging sensation just above and on the outer side of the knee where the ITB moves over the femur - also possibly below the knee where the ITB attaches to the tibia. Pain can intensify during activity and is most commonly felt when the foot strikes the ground.
Overpronation is a common contributor to ITBS and well-fitting, accurately profiled insoles can reduce the abnormal forces being placed on the knee.
HOW ABOUT PAINKILLERS?
Painkillers in isolation are a bad idea because, if you continue to exercise, they mask the ongoing, underlying problem.
The correct insoles will address the cause by allowing the lower limb to manage ground force reaction naturally.
