by Adri Sahagun • October 15, 2019I have had excruciating pain in my feet due to osteoarthritis for years which made going for a walk filled with pain and almost impossible. I've tried insoles and orthotics before but never found they made a difference until I tried Protalus.

I have had residual pain in one foot from a fractured metatarsal and the three surgeries required to heal the fracture and stop a bad staph infection that developed around the screw put in to heal the fracture. I also have knee pain in my left leg. The pain has left me unable to work, walk for more than ten minutes, or even put in a day of housecleaning because of the pain.

Christy Sanders
by Adri Sahagun • August 28, 2019Ordered these because I have severe overpronation which has now caused arthritis in my knee. I ordered the M100s. They fit true to size and are very comfortable.

by Adri Sahagun • August 19, 2019These are literally amazing! I've suffered with painful plantar fasciitis for years, brought on by my CNA work.
Michael Carrigan
by Adri Sahagun • August 06, 2019I walk a lot on concrete and am 65 years old. I’ve had pain in my feet, hips and back, I thought it was just aches and pains you have to live with when you get older.
Jack Trifts
by Adri Sahagun • July 26, 2019I have been using the M100s for about a year and I am so happy with them. I have been wearing orthotics for most of my adult life.
Patti Schwartz
by Adri Sahagun • July 26, 2019As a Physical Therapist, I used to help patients with custom-fabricated orthotics. This is still helpful in some cases, but most often my patients (and some family members) just have flat feet (pronation) and they develop pain in the feet / ankles / knees / hips / or back because of the mal-alignment.

by Adri Sahagun • July 23, 2019My feet hurt everyday until I got my Protalus inserts!!
Dianna Pierson
by Adri Sahagun • July 23, 2019 I have very bad arthritic feet and Charcot's foot from diabetes. I too went
to the Doctor, got custom inserts and they killed my feet! Then I also saw
Protalus and purchased a pair.
Robert J Wieder
by Adri Sahagun • July 23, 2019I just wanted to say that I was basically wheelchair-bound for the last two years of my life because of a diabetic foot ulcer in my right CHARCOT FOOT.
Nancy Huff
by Adri Sahagun • July 17, 2019I recently retired and was doing a lot of walking. I developed Plantar Fasciitis and had to stop walking while my foot recovered. Part of my recovery plan was finding a shoe insole that would accelerate the healing process. I found a Protalus ad on Facebook and visited the website and read numerous reviews.

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.
