Almost everyone knows what calluses and corns are - this is the most common pathology in people, which causes significant discomfort and pain, especially when walking or standing. One of the effective ways to treat and prevent such formations is the use of special cushions and insoles.
Their principle of action is based on changing the distribution of pressure on the foot, providing additional support in the right places. The use of such devices for shoes brings many advantages:

In order to maximize the effect of using cushions and insoles, it is important to properly prepare for their selection and use.
Consult an orthopedist:
Attention should be paid to the materials from which the orthopedic products are made. They should be of high quality, hypoallergenic and durable.
Be sure to try on the cushions or insoles before you buy them. They should fit well in your shoes without causing discomfort or additional pain.
We recommend to start wearing your new cushions or insoles gradually, increasing the amount of time you use them each day. This will help your feet adapt to the new environment. During the first few weeks of use, monitor your sensations closely. If discomfort or pain occurs, see your podiatrist for adjustments.
