FAQs

What are heel lifts good for?

Heel lifts are added to the inside of shoes to decrease the load on tendons (e.g., Achilles), reduce tension in plantar fascia, assist mild leg length discrepancies, and enhance gait patterns.        They redistribute the pressure and are able to alleviate pain.

What is the disadvantage of a heel lift?

They can also change gait and posture, make it uncomfortable when excessively high, weaken calf muscles during a lifetime, annoy the skin or tendons, and not fit the shoes—size and direction are important.

Do heel lifts help plantar fasciitis?

Yes—the lifts on the heel decrease the plantar fascia stretch and relieve the pain and strain.     Patients with plantar fasciitis often prefer stretching exercises and wearing the right shoes.

How do I know if I need a heel lift?

You may require a heel lift if you have differences in leg lengths, persistent heel or tendon pain, altered heel position, or pain that improves with a slight elevation of the heel; a podiatrist should measure this.
