I was a certified and licensed trainer athletic trainer in the State of Pennsylvania. if someone wanted to go to the podiatrist and pay hundreds and hundreds of dollars, for a foot cast and a valuation and so on. That was their prerogative. But this is the alternative that worked for me. It’s very reasonable for what I got. It was only $80, very reasonable for what I got. Dr. Scholl-esque off the rack, size ten, slip them in and hope for the best, there was  some arch support and cushion, with this over the counter product. But nothing like the prescription arch support his product provides.

I’m on my feet most of the day on concrete floors because I work two jobs. And I was really having a problem, I couldn’t get out of bed in the morning because my feet hurt so bad. Then I just broke down and said let me try the insoles...

As a medical professional, I dealt with athletes for 38'years. I always stressed the importance of proper alignment of the kinetic chain especially in distance running athletes.. After retirement I started suffering foot, ankle and medial knee pain from running all my life.

Fantastic! I didn't have any foot or leg pain before purchasing them, but I could definitely feel the difference using these inserts. From running on the treadmill to walking my dog, in just two days I can feel a difference in that my legs and feet aren't as tired.

I’ve had problems for a long time. I have mild neuropathy and Rheumatoid Arthritis. I play golf a lot, and travel a lot so I thought this was worth looking into for pain relief in my feet. Mild Neuropathy is a nerve problem, generally associated with people that are diabetic. My arthritis issues started probably 10 years ago after knee replacement surgery. I’ve been dealing with this for the last 10 years, trying different solutions and the Doctors said this is something you have to live with...

I ordered these insoles for my husband. He works in a hospital and is on his feet 8-10 hours per day. After wearing them the first full day, he could feel a considerable difference in his knees. He states that his feet no longer feel tired at the end of the day...

I want to say how happy I was to meet Stacy Matthews at our National Ergo Conference. I was able to obtain 2 pairs of insoles, 1 for me and one for my SO. I can't wear mine yet as I'm scheduled for knee surgery, but my SO loves his. He has always struggled with back and arch pain. He started using the insoles and no longer has pain like he used to....

I purchased a pair for my husband, as I was often nagging him about his posture and gait. He had stopped using his custom orthotics as they were uncomfortable. WOW! He loved these... so much  so he asked me to order a second pair  within two days of receiving the first pair...

Just returned from a backpacking trip to Philmont Scout Ranch in NM. Our crew hiked close to 10 miles each day for a week on rocky, muddy, uneven terrain in wet and dry conditions. I carried a 35lb. backpack plus 4L of water and 3 days worth of food at a time and I only weigh 100lb. My feet had been aching on our weekend practice hikes leading up to the trip and I was concerned how they would hold up for more consecutive days. I also tend to have an issue with alignment which affects my right hip.

My husband has very bad heel spurs. He went to the doctor and they gave him a pair of insoles, after one month he had shredded them as a janitor at the local school. Very worried about having to have surgery. I bought him a new pair hoping it would help; didn't do any good. Then Protalus showed up on my Facebook feed.

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...
