Heel Cups

The heel cushions protect the area from possible friction with the shoes and also provide additional support to the foot. Depending on the type of material they are made of, there are different types of heel cushions, and at Herbi Feet you will be able to get them all.

Using heel supports helps people who wear them to reduce the symptoms of physical problems they may have, such as overloaded knees, hips or the heel itself. Another quality of heel cushions is that they help to improve circulation in the legs, as they put pressure on the area, facilitating the movement of blood upwards.

At the same time, they are of great help in reducing the symptoms of heel spurs, a calcification that occurs in the heel and can be quite painful. It usually occurs due to improper footwear or poor standing posture. With the use of the heel cups, the heel is elevated so that the area where the spur has been created does not rub directly against the shoe.

Other conditions can also be treated with the use of heel cushions, such as plantar fasciitis, tendonitis in the Achilles heel and knees, and back pain. It is undoubtedly a very beneficial product for the health of the feet and helps to prevent problems that may arise.

Silicone heel cushions

As we have mentioned, there are different types of heel cushions depending on the material they are made of, such as silicone, the most recommended for sports. If you are a person who likes to go running, but you always end up with discomfort or pain, then heel cushions can help you to prevent this from happening again.

The use of this product is beneficial for correcting bad footing and for this it is important to know what type of runner you are: pronator, supinator or neutral. Depending on all this, you should use the heel cups in one way or another and you will improve heel deviation and improve your posture.

At HerbiFeet we offer different silicone heel cushions so that you can choose the one that best suits your needs. For example, you can find the Duplo heel cup special for joint pain, arthritic or diabetic foot problems and heel spurs.

Another model available is the lined Silonite heel cups which has a larger unloading area and adhesive Velcro that prevents it from moving. This product is indicated for arthrosis of the ankle, knee or femur head and the material in which it is made has ideal cushioning and elasticity characteristics.

Gel heel cushions

Another of the materials used to manufacture heel cushions is gel, and you can also get them at HerbiFeet. The Duplo gel-lined heel cups, for example, helps to relax the heel area, providing rest and cushioning. Thanks to its soft, smooth density, it absorbs microtrauma, preventing damage and injury.

You can also opt for the self-adhesive gel heel cushion that does not move while you walk and is reusable. In addition, you can wash it and it will not lose adherence. They help with heel spur problems and tendonitis by providing rest to the foot.

If you have any problem or need to protect the heel area due to the type of footwear you wear or because you do a lot of sports, in HerbiFeet you will find the models of heel cushions you need. Choose the one that best suits you and start taking care of your feet.
