by Adri Sahagun • April 05, 2018I bought a pair of these a few months ago. I have plantar fasciitis and stand on concrete 12 hours a day. After a couple of weeks, I'd come to the conclusion that they were ok, I really wasn't sure they were worth the money though...

by Adri Sahagun • March 28, 2018I work on a manufacturing assembly line. My job requires me to be standing 10-11 hours a day. I don't believe anything can eliminate 100 percent of the pain when standing that long day after day...

by Adri Sahagun • February 26, 2018I had a knee replacement 5 years ago, and occasionally have plantar fasciitis flare up in that leg due to the realignment. I tried over the counter arch supports that worked fairly well, but read about the benefits of Protalus insoles. Just received a pair of M75's...

by Adri Sahagun • February 26, 2018H aving a job that requires you being on your feet for appx 9-10 hours a day walking on concrete and gravel...well, after 23 years, it’s taken a toll on my knee and back. While flipping through Facebook, I noticed the ad for Protalus insoles and thought what could it hurt to try them out. I’ve tried numerous other types of insoles, with no luck...

by Adri Sahagun • February 02, 2018For years I have suffered with heel, knee and lower back pain. All the doctors wanted to do was surgery. I endured a knee replacement and had a partial heel removal. I still had so much pain that I could only walk with a limp. My activity was really limited and I lived with the pain 24/7...

After knee surgery a few years back and an MCL tear just a few months ago, I have chronic knee issues. I've been wearing nothing but shoes with these amazing insoles in them to help with my knee for the last few weeks straight. Today I grabbed a pair of shoes I wear less often and forgot to switch out the insole. I can feel my ankle breaking in hard…

by AJ Brown • January 11, 2018This product absolutely worked for me! I have plantar fasciitis and have tried several remedies from custom foot prosthetic inserts from a podiatrist to over-the-counter foot inserts. Nothing really worked and my pain seemed to move to different areas of my foot. I saw an ad for the Protalus insert that touted the benefits of foot alignment as a remedy for plantar fasciitis. I was very skeptical but after reading many favorable reviews of the product on various websites, I decided to buy a pair and try it. I followed the instructions to start wearing the Protalus insert only for a couple of hours daily and.....

I have been a hairstylist for over 45 years, and needless to say have given my feet, knees, legs and overall body a beating with all the standing. I have searched for good supportive footwear. I have even had custom made orthotics. Even then by the end of the day my feet and legs were hurting to the point that doing much after working was minimal. I found Protalus a couple of weeks ago online and thought maybe they have "the support " I need. NEWS FLASH----AMAZING! Received my insoles and...

I've always had to carry two pairs of shoes with me...especially at work. Anytime I'm on my feet for more than 4-5 hours (which, as an RN, busy mom and health coach, is often) my arches, ankles, knees and lower back start hurting and I need to switch shoes just to make it through the rest of the day. I have every shoe imaginable and was convinced that…

Having served in the United States Army as an Infantrymen and being deployed two times to Iraq the consequences of patrolling day and night and carrying loads of gear caused massive damage over time, and my body was a mess. Before the Army I was a marathon runner, compiling 100 marathons since the age of 13-teen-years old. After getting wounded in combat…
Kelly Kathrineberg
by Adri Sahagun • January 08, 2018I had gotten quite overweight. (Over 300 pounds) My hips and knees were hurting, and it had become a vicious cycle, where it was hard to keep moving because of the pain. But the pain was worse because, without movement, it was much harder to lose any weight. When I took a job in a healthcare facility, more movement became NECESSARY. I bought new shoes, and discovered these insoles on my Facebook feed and decided to give them a try.

Patented Technology Makes It Possible
The difference lies in our patented TRI-Planar technology. Other insole companies place a stump under the arch and call it support. Our insoles focus on the cause of the problem rather than the symptoms, designed to help your body maintain a neutral ankle joint position, while still allowing full ranges of healthy movement. Proper joint alignment improves movement efficiency, reduces fatigue, and prevents injury to help you do what you love.
Reduced Risk of Injury
The bones of the ankle and heel are most stable when they are positioned in alignment. If they shift away from a center alignment, they become less stable.
Imagine pressure being placed on those unstable structures over and over again while you walk, run, or work. That is where the injuries can take place.
Injuries can present as chronic pain in the foot, knees, hips, and back. They may also include acute injuries such as an ankle sprain.
Keeping your hindfoot in alignment allows not only your bones but also the surrounding muscles, tendons, and ligaments to properly handle the pressure placed on them from your feet through your back.
Better Balance
Your ankles and feet work together to manage how weight is distributed as you move
If your heels and ankles are not in their proper positions, they cannot properly distribute weight and this may lead to a less stable walking motion.
When your ankles and heels are out of alignment, your muscles, ligaments, and tendons often have to step in to ensure proper alignment and balance.
When these muscles become fatigued, they may not be able to handle the task properly and you become more likely to fall or become injured.
Increased Energy Efficiency
As you walk and move, your kinetic energy moves from your feet up through your body.
This energy can be seen when walking in sand. Sand kicks up behind you with each step. It is moved by the energy created when you move your foot.
Fatigued muscles don't pass as much of that energy onto the next structure. That is why walking in sand is tiring; energy is being lost and your muscles become fatigued.
An aligned kinetic chain allows the highest quantity of energy to be transferred up through your body, giving you more power and helping you feel less tired.
Better Pressure Distribution
The body is designed to distribute pressure so that your muscles can primarily be concerned with movement.
When the skeletal system becomes misaligned, especially at the joint between the heel and ankle, pressure is no longer distributed across the structures that are most able to deal with it.
Instead, other structures, such as the ligaments in the knees, hips, and ankles, must take on the job and that can lead them to become fatigued, sore, or injured.
Protalus insoles correct the misalignment so you can avoid fatique and injury.
