Revolutionizing Comfort
Enabling natural barefoot functions in any shoe, on any surface. Because better movement means better health!
Experts agree we weren’t meant to wear shoes, but we live in a world of concrete, asphalt, and a host of other terrains that wreak havoc on our feet. To make things worse, the shoes we wear restrict the natural movements of the more than 100 bones, muscles, and joints in each foot. But there’s hope!
Surface Area
More surface area under the heel means better pressure distribution. Protalus insoles increase the heel's surface by ten times.
Alignment
A neutral heel alignment takes stress off the plantar fascia and reduces fatigue throughout the body. This helps your feet, knees, hip and back!
Comfort
The curve of the heel cup, alignment technology, and insole materials all work together to create the highest level of comfort for you.
Proper Biometrics
Protalus insoles allow the foot to function with optimal biomechanics. They help distribute forces evenly during weight-bearing activities like walking and running, reducing excessive stress on specific structures in the foot, ankle, and lower extremities.
Stability
A foot with proper alignment provides better stability during weight-bearing activities, reducing the risk of falls or injuries.
Injury Prevention
Excessive pronation or supination can lead to overuse injuries, such as plantar fasciitis, shin splints, or Achilles Tendonitis. Maintaining a neutral ankle position can help reduce the risk of these injuries.
Alignment
Proper alignment of the foot can positively influence the alignment of the entire lower kinetic chain, including the knee, hip, and lower back. This can help reduce the risk of overuse injuries and musculoskeletal disorders.
Balanced Gait
Protalus insoles can positively influence gait mechanics, promoting efficient and symmetrical movement during walking or running.
Athletic Performance
Protalus insoles can positively influence gait mechanics, promoting efficient and symmetrical movement during walking or running.
