Heel pads prevent and relieve pain caused by heel spurs, joint pain, and backaches resulting from the shock wave that travels through the body with each step. Validated by podiatrists, Physio'Choc™ is a powerful shock absorber. Made from this material, the heel pads dissipate the energy generated during impacts between the ground and the foot, thus reducing joint pain and backaches. Furthermore, by raising the heel by 5 mm, the heel pads reduce tension on the plantar fascia and provide significant comfort for those with heel spurs. The 5 mm thick Physio'Choc™ heel pads dissipate the energy generated during ground/foot impacts and reduce plantar tension by raising the heels. The Epithelium™ gel insert provides additional comfort. The heel pads are held in place in the shoes with double-sided adhesive. They are not washable. You can leave them in your shoes for several months. Two sizes available: Men's (L) and Women's (S). Box/2 Heel Pads (1 pair).
