• Running exerts even more pressure, 3-3.5 times pressure of body weight on the feet. There is no wonder that between 75-80% of the adult population have some form of foot problem

• A network of muscles, tendons and ligaments support the bones and joints in the foot. There are 20 muscles in the foot that give the foot its shape by holding the bones in position and expand and contract to cause movement. Tendons connect muscles to bones, and ligaments connect bone to bone.

• Two conditions that affect foot stability are pronation and supination. While both are normal foot positions, over-pronation or over-supination are common causes of foot problems.

• Plantar Fasciitis is a common painful foot condition caused by inflammation of the plantar fascia. It is usually caused by biomechanical imbalance resulting in tension along the plantar fascia.

• Plantar Fasciitis plus many other foot pains and injuries can be prevented - and relieved- by SPENCO® Insoles.

• Alignment plays a critical role in keeping our feet functioning well, Spenco insoles can help relieve many lower body conditions. The most common foot condition that people suffer from is over-pronation.

• Other types of foot injuries are directly related to excessive pressures, often resulting from overuse or standing on your feet all day. In these situations, extra cushioning Spenco insoles help to relieve pressure and absorb the shock that causes soreness and pain.

• Some of these types of foot injuries are Shin Splints, IT bank syndrome, Heel Spurs, Metatarsaglia, Achilles Tendonitus, Neuroma, and Bunions.
