I had so much pain in my feet and heaviness in my legs. So much so that I dreaded putting shoes on my feet. I'm a diabetic and the tops of my feet would burn as if hit with hot lava running through the veins in my feet. Even my toes hurt, couldn't keep up with others walking, my legs felt heavy along with the pain in my feet made it excruciating...

If you need insoles desperately for your plantar fasciitis and you can't afford custom ones, these are for you! I am a 24-year-old nurse with horrible plantar fasciitis, and Protalus insoles have been the best ones I've found so far.

Pain drives people to explore other options. I am a nurse of fifty-three years, believe me, I know the pain of my feet, legs, and hips! I want to discover the cause or reason for my pain to correct it, not just mask it.

I received my inserts today just before heading off to work. I'm a long-term care nurse and spend 8 hours on my feet on a concrete floor. As if that wasn't enough of a reason to need something that supported my feet...

I had ACL reconstruction on my right knee and have been wearing these for over a year. Amazing when I have them on and when I don't my feet and knees hurt again.

I am an avid amateur golfer, with aspirations of being more. I generally get out and play 4-5 times per week and practice equally as much. A couple years ago, I started to get sharp pains in my foot when I was playing, more so when I walked while I play. After a couple trips to the doctor, I found that I have plantar fasciitis in my foot, something…

I can't believe it. It's like I am in a dream, the other day I made an appointment with my podiatrist because my feet were hurting so bad. He gave me one of those painful shots. Once again my feet continued to hurt, I am flat footed and have Plantar. I have been following this site for 2 years but was afraid of trying because of the price plus I figured that they would be like all the rest. Well March 26th I decided to take a chance...

I have to say I was skeptical when I started to see Protalus in my news feed as a "suggested" page. We're all the reviews legit and real?!?! I have been suffering from plantar fasciitis for the past six months, and I was starting to believe that I would never walk/run without pain again. Having started treatment with a chiropractor and ultimately moving to a podiatrist I started to lose faith.....$1000 later I was still dealing with pain...laser heat treatment...new shoes....custom orthopedics....nothing was working. I have been using my Protalus now......

No surgery or cortisone shots - these insoles work!

These insoles work really great for me! No more aching back or knees, I never thought it possible without surgery or cortisone shots every 6-12 months. This product has changed my life - I don't have any pain like I've had for I can't remember how many years now. I ordered this pair for my workboots.

My feet hurt less!!

I am an avid runner, physical education teacher, and coach and spend a lot of time on my feet. I developed plantar fasciitis in August 2016, and I was wearing the Green Feet brand. They were ok but a little too hard. I thought I would give protalus a try and I love them. My feet feel so much better and don't hurt after a long day of work!! They have a lot of support, and the arches have a lot of cushion in the heel area. Thank you for such a wonderful product!!
