Dessery Y, Belzile E, Turmel S, Corbeil P. Effects of foot orthoses with medial arch support and lateral wedge on knee adduction moment in patients with medial knee osteoarthritis. Prosthetics Orthot Int. 2016. For those dealing with plantar fasciitis, or painful irritation in your plantar fascia tissue, we recommend Walk-Hero's Comfort and Support Plantar Fasciitis Insoles. They helped revamp our old shoes, correcting overpronation while reducing the pain and pressure we felt in our arches. We also like the deep heel cup, which offers great stability.

Addition of an arch support improves the biomechanical effect of a laterally wedged insole. Gait Posture. 2009;29(2):208–13.

The Lateral Sole Wedge is designed to be worn under insoles and orthotics; it just depends on how much room your shoe has, and whether they can both fit comfortably.Medial wedge insoles work to control excessive inward movement at the foot and ankle during gait by aligning the heel bone, which may also in turn correct any misalignment of the lower limb. By placing the heel in a medially angled position, insoles can adjust the loading across the knee and ankle joint reducing the level of pain at the affected area. The dimensions for insoles can be found on the "Product Details" tab (please see below) and are usually found in the sizing section of the listing, in a table. Please be aware that not all products currently have the dimensions listed. Hinman RS, Bowles KA, Metcalf BB, Wrigley TV, Bennell KL.

Prosthetics Orthot Int. 2009;33(2):107–16. The heel and arch support are made of very stiff foam. It's hard to say how long they will last for a bigger person.Jones RK, Chapman GJ, Forsythe L, Parkes MJ, Felson DT. The relationship between reductions in knee loading and immediate pain response whilst wearing lateral wedged insoles in knee osteoarthritis. J Orthop Res. 2014;32(9):1147–54. Electronic databases were searched from their inception until May 2017. Included studies reported on the immediate biomechanical effects of different degrees of lateral wedge insoles during walking in people with knee osteoarthritis. The main measures of interest relating to the biomechanics were the first and second peak of external knee adduction moment and knee adduction angular impulse. For the comparison of the biomechanical effects of different degrees of insoles, the studies were divided in three subgroups: insoles with a degree higher than 0° and equal to or lower than 5°; insoles higher than 5° and equal to or lower than 9°; and insoles higher than 9°. Eligible studies were pooled using random-effects meta-analysis. Results
