Synergy Massaging Insoles provide semi-flexible support to the arch by "giving" to absorb the shock of each step, rather than the foot absorbing the shock (the liquid orthotics act in the same way a shock absorber does on an automobile).
Whether the arch is flat or abnormally high, Synergy Massaging Insoles will help provide the support that is needed. When the arch is properly supported, the Plantar Fascia is protected and healing can begin. |
A heel spur is a pointed bony outgrowth of the bone of the heel (the calcaneus bone). They are attributed to local inflammation at the insertion of soft tissue tendons or fascia in the area. Heel spurs can be located at the back of the heel or under the heel, beneath the sole of the foot.
Heel spurs can cause wear and tear or pain if it presses or rubs on other bones or soft tissues such as ligaments, tendons, or nerves in the body.
Heel spurs at the back of the heel cause tenderness and pain at the back of the heel made worse while pushing off the ball of the foot.

CAUSES:
A bone spur forms as the body tries to repair itself by building extra bone. It generally forms in response to pressure, rubbing, or stress that continues over a long period of time.
Some bone spurs form as part of the aging process. As we age, the slippery tissue called cartilage that covers the ends of the bones within joints breaks down and eventually wears away. Bone spurs due to aging are especially common in the joints of the spine and feet.
Bone spurs also form in the feet in response to tight ligaments, to activities such as dancing and running that put stress on the feet, and to pressure from being overweight or from poorly fitting shoes.

Bone spurs also form in the feet in response to tight ligaments, to activities such as dancing and running that put stress on the feet, and to pressure from being overweight or from poorly fitting shoes.
The long ligament on the bottom of the foot (plantar fascia) can become stressed or tight and pull on the heel, causing the ligament to become inflamed (plantar fasciitis).
As the bone tries to mend itself, a bone spur can form on the bottom of the heel.
Pressure at the back of the heel from frequently wearing shoes that are too tight can cause a bone spur on the back of the heel.
This is sometimes called a "pump bump" because it is often seen in women who wear high heels.
