I Tried an At Home Orthotic Insole - and it Stopped My Plantar Fasciitis

I tried everything – insoles, massages, different shoes, pain medication. No one could offer me a clear non-prescription or non-surgical solution. The pain was excruciating!

One day I went to an expo and was introduced to DoctorInsole. By that time, I had tried everything (including just about every single insole on the planet). I thought to myself “what have I got to lose?” 

I started using them slowly in the gym. Then I tried to incorporate them into my daily life, just walking around. From the very moment I started, I got relief and was really pleased. But it is when I started incorporating them into my runs, that I understood how significant this was! The support helped alleviate the burn that I felt from the Plantar Fasciitis.

I would recommend DoctorInsole to anyone to just try them. You don’t have to be prescribed orthotics. Insert them into your shoes and see how they give you relief.

As your foot position changes, your body follows, building core strength, improving your posture and ultimately changing the way you walk and stand.

First day: I removed the insole that came with my shoes and replaced it with DoctorInsole. The initial feeling took some getting use to but I was advised that this is normal.

Second day: My shoes felt a little more comfortable already and when I looked at the insole I could see a noticeable impression of my feet.

Third day: When I put on my shoes they felt more comfortable than ever before and was ready to incorporate them into my workouts.

End of first week: My endurance at the gym was better and I had a noticeable reduction in pain.

Two weeks: The shoes became my new favorites and I wore them everywhere. To be honest, I even felt happier. I didn't realize how distracting the pain I had been experiencing was, until it was gone.

While I know that many athletes use orthotics I never thought that I would need them. Perhaps I mistakingly took my feet for granted all these years. I want to let everyone know that there’s a solution for Plantar Fasciitis and that you should take better care of your feet. For some reason we don’t consider the amount of strain we put on them and how it effects us over time. Your feet are the foundation of your body.  I'm shocked that I put so much time in the gym to work on my muscles and build stamina, but I never gave any thought to my feet... until they forced me to think about them more.

I would urge anyone that suffers from foot and lower back pain to try DoctorInsole. It doesn't matter if you are on your feet for long periods of time, if you are extremely athletic or if you are just someone who sits behind a desk - just try it and see if your life improves, you have nothing to lose. I can tell you first hand, that these insoles have significantly improved my life.
