How Stabilizing Orthotics benefit runners
Runners are prone to injuries such as plantar fasciitis and knee pain. Stabilizing Orthotics have been shown to specifically reduce pain caused by these conditions.
Some Stablizing Orthotics, such as Elite Energy™, are made with strategically placed magnets in specific zones that may help to increase energy and lead to better vitality.
The InMotion™ Stabilizing Orthotic is infused with silver and Celliant® to give you the most in odor and moisture control. Celliant is clinically proven to help increase blood oxygen levels in active patients, which can help to boost energy, amplify stamina and strength, and balance body temperature.
At the expo
Foot Levelers will perform free foot scans at the race expo to show runners how imbalances in the feet can lead to problems in the knees, hips, back and shoulders. The foot scan will show how Stabilizing Orthotics may help. Visit the Understanding Your Feet page for details on what the foot scan will show.
Also at the expo, Foot Levelers will be handing out FREE Blue Ridge Marathon and Half Marathon stickers, seen below. They are about 3 inches by 5 inches in size, perfect for your running sticker collection.
