If you are suffering from Plantar Facsiitis, a painful condition of the foot, New Balance shoes offers comfort and relief with several styles of shoes and inserts. Their Metatarsal Arch Rise is contoured, which helps re-distribute weight and pressure. This will bring relief from painful plantar fasciitis and other foot conditions.
Plantar facsia is a thick band of connective tissue that normally supports the foot arch. When the inflammatory condition of plantar fasciitis erupts, it can interfere with normal living and work. This painful condition is a result of abnormal pronation (downward rotation) of the foot. It can also be caused by excessive wear to the plantar fascia of the foot. Part of the contributing factors to this condition are overweight, jobs that require a lot of walking, and lack of arch support in shoes. The pain is felt under the heel, and is most painful early in the day. Continual bouts of plantar fasciitis can cause a person to leave such jobs due to pain.
One way to combat the pain of plantar fasciitis is with properly designed arch support in your shoes. New Balance shoes has developed several ways to achieve this goal. Their motion control shoes, stability inserts, and heat moldable arch support inserts can help with pressure relief. The shoes and inserts are designed to re-distribute weight and pressure, thus giving relief from plantar fasciitis. The shoe offers a soft heel with a significant arch. See your local New Balance dealer for more information.
