The deep heel cup found in Protalus insoles keeps your lower extremities in proper alignment. This allows your body to distribute pressure properly, even when walking on hard surfaces. The result is pain relief, reduced fatigue, and increased energy.
In laboratory tests, Protalus insoles show up to:
I'm a registered nurse who works 13 hour shifts and have been suffering from achilles tendinopathy secondary to soleus strain. I haven't been able to run in nearly a year and have been miserable at work. My chiropractor suggested I try your inserts to promote proper heel alignment which would in turn relieve soleus strain. He cautioned me that it may take some time to see a difference. The first day I wore them, my pain was at least 90% improved. It nearly brought tears of joy. I appreciate this product and have high hopes that eventually I will run again.

Well, I have to say...these insoles WORK!! I ordered last Thurs. They arrived on Sat. (such quick service). Hubby wore them to work on Monday. He is a nurse who works 12hr. shifts....called me 3hrs. into his shift to tell me how great his feet felt...and his back. Came home that night with NO complaints of pain where he usually has pain after a long shift! Worth every penny! Thank you Protalus!

I bought these for my wife. She is a RN and years of being on her feet for several hours a day have taken it’s toll. She made me buy her another set! They have taken away her foot pain. Thank you!

They are amazing. I'm a nurse, and by the end of my shift, my feet were always hurting. Now, with Protalus, my feet feel great even at the end of my shift.

I am a nurse in a very busy office and have been dealing with plantar fasciitis for over 1 month. I received my T-100 finally this weekend. Yesterday I wore them for 9 hours. This morning I woke up with pain but able to stand without wanting to drop! These insoles made such a big difference in one day. Hope they hold up and this will become dormant once again!!

I am loving my inserts. Worked 14 hour days and was able to walk. Plantar fasciitis pain not completely gone yet, but is minimal when wearing inserts. Arthritis in injured left knee is feeling better also. This nurse is happy.

These insoles are awesome. I work 12 hour shifts at a hospital and they have been a lifesaver for me. My feet no longer hurt at the end of the day. I bought my mom a pair also. She is 74 years old and still works. She says they have helped her in a lot of ways. Best money I've spent in a long time!!!

For 2 years I have dealt with plantar fasciitis in both feet. Years of nursing plus weight gain have taken their toll. About 3 weeks ago I had the worst flare up to date. After reading the reviews I ordered Protalus insoles. Honestly I had my doubts but with the guarantee I decided I really had nothing to lose. I am taking time to write this review today because I am utterly amazed! After 4 days of use my left foot doesn’t hurt at all and my right foot (which had the worst pain) is 90% better. I awakened this morning and for the first time in weeks I didn’t experience the excruciating sharp tearing morning pain I generally experience. I am beyond thrilled with my Protalus insoles!

I purchased these a couple months ago and at the time was experiencing foot pain in multiple areas of my foot...Arch, ball of my foot and heel. I'm a nurse and long days on my feet were killing me. These are amazing. Completely pain free within 2 weeks. I have recommended them to all my friends with foot pain. Do yourself a favor and stop your suffering, these are the remedy!!

I'm a nurse and I'm on my feet constantly for 12+ hours a day. Most days I put 10,000-14,000 steps in on a shift. I purchased these a few months ago and THEY ARE AMAZING!!! Took me a few days to get use to them because they put pressure in places I wasn't used to (turns out that "pressure" is support 😂). I don't lay awake at night with muscle spasms or pain in my feet after working anymore, and getting up in the morning is only painful because who wants to get up to an alarm clock!!?! I consider this money well spent!!

These are a God send. I suffered from foot and heel pain. I'm a nurse and on my feet 12 hours at a time. I went through physical therapy, podiatrist, all without relief. I took a chance on these and they are wonderful. The pain and burning are gone. Thank you for a great product!

Ok, so let me be perfectly honest here. I have collapsed arch and plantar fasciitis, the whole package for pain. I’ve spent a lot of money on shoes and insoles including the custom made, reading a lot of “great” advertisements that turn out to be just another waste money. Of course I was skeptical when I heard about Protalus thinking it’s another money making business at the expense of my problem. Well this time I was pleasantly surprised. They are extremely comfortable, great support for my heels and my arch. I’m a nurse, on my feet all day. Trust me, Protalus insoles are the best. Just reordered 2 pairs. Thank you Protalus.

Oh my word! In one day , I feel soooooo much better, already. My hips , legs and feet thank you!!!! Never thought that these would make a difference! Between my stretching exercise, rolling my feet on a DRYER ball and also a frozen bottle of water and stretching both legs with my hubby's belt as well as stretching my feet on STAIRS... I think soon I can go back to work as a nurse ! Thank you!!!!!!! Plantar fasciitis causes heel spurs so keep those leg stretched daily and do not go a day without these insoles by Protalus! I love them!!!!

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
