Different types of insoles are excellent for the prevention and treatment of the sports injuries such as the shin splints, runner’s knee, jumper’s knee, ilio tibial band friction syndrome, the medial tibial stress syndrome, tibial stress fractures and the bone stress reactions, as well as osteoarthritis of the hip joint and the knee joint.
Common types of Insoles are:
-
Custom Made Insoles:
These insoles are made on size and help in correcting posture issues, relieving joint relief from arthritis, increasing comfort and maintaining arch support. These are recommended for foot conditions like Plantar Fasciitis, Mortons Neuroma, Achilles Tendonitis, flexible foot deformities, metatarsalgia, diabetic feet, Charcot feet and foot ulcers.
- Molded Leather Cork Insoles
- Molded Foam Insoles
Full Length Insoles:
Full Length Orthotics and Arch Supports are superb for sports shoes, and running shoes, where they can be inserted as an insole replacement. These also provide a degree of cushioning and shock absorption in addition to improving the foot biomechanics.
Full length silicone gel insoles are excellent for the prevention and treatment of sports injuries such as shin splints, runner’s knee, jumper’s knee, ilio tibial band friction syndrome, medial tibial stress syndrome, tibial stress fractures and bone stress reactions, as well as osteoarthritis of the hip joint and knee joint.
2/3 Insoles:
The ¾ length makes them ideal for fitting into narrow fitting footwear. By providing support for fallen arches or pronated feet they prevent over pronation during walking and running. This improves foot stability and controls rotation of the shin.The simple fitting of Orthotics and Arch Supports creates normal lower limb posture and prevents excessive loads that lead to injury.
Three quarter length Silicone gel insoles are excellent for all day comfort in work shoes, and for the prevention and treatment of sports injuries typically suffered by runners, dancers, tennis players, etc. Injuries which can benefit from the used of 3/4 length insoles include shin splints, runner’s knee, jumper’s knee, ilio tibial band friction syndrome, medial tibial stress syndrome, tibial stress fractures and bone stress reactions, as well as osteoarthritis of the hip joint and knee joint.

Silicone Gel Insoles:
Hope provides high quality silicone gel insoles which make every day shoes more comfortable. These encourage pressure redistribution and ease pain, pressure and friction. The silicone insoles reduce shock loads particularly in the forefoot and heel areas. Offering light arch support to maintain the longitudinal arch, the insoles may help with plantar fasciitis. These are recommended for prevention and treatment of shin splints, runners knee, medial tibial stress syndrome, tibial stress fractures, as well as osteoarthritis of the knee joint and hip joint.
