Over-Pronation Explained (Plus How to Spot It)

10:42 am /

Do you over-pronate?

If you do, should you care?

The answer is yes! Over-pronation can lead to a host of problems in the joints, bones, and muscles, not to mention the feet.  These problems inevitably get worse over time.

But first, let’s back up a moment. What in the heck is “pronation” anyway?

In short, pronation describes the way your foot rolls inward when you walk and run, specifically, as your foot makes contact with the ground. Pronation is nature’s way of reducing shock on the feet, legs, and everything above, and it’s part of the “gait cycle,” or the interrelated sets of movements that keep you mobile while upright. read more

What Custom Orthotics Did for Heather’s Plantar Fasciitis

3:22 pm /

We love to hear from folks who have gotten better, faster, stronger, more pain-free-er using our custom orthotics.  Here’s what Heather from Maple Grove, Minnesota shared with us last week:

“For years I suffered on and off with plantar fasciitis. Last fall it was so severe that I had to stop exercising because I was in so much pain. People told me to try custom orthotics, but I never did because I didn’t think they would help me. Heather BlumerI finally tried over-the-counter orthotics but they didn’t help at all. After suffering for so many years, I finally decided I would try custom orthotics by Foot Levelers. Wow! What a difference they have made! I no longer wake up in the morning with heel pain. I can go running once again! I’ve also used the FootWheel which has been a tremendous help! The combination of the custom orthotics and the FootWheel have made such a difference in my life!” read more
