Can Insoles Help You?

Are you experiencing discomfort or pain in your feet, back and/or hips? Are you looking for ways to improve your running performance and reduce the risk of injury?  If so, adding a premium insole to your shoes may help you.

Insoles provide additional support, cushioning, and stability.   They can help correct any foot issues or imbalances, such as overpronation or supination, and alleviate pain in the feet, knees, and lower back. Insoles can also help absorb shock and reduce the impact of running on your joints.

At Medved Running, we understand the importance of proper footwear and the impact it has on your running performance and overall health. That’s why we offer a personalized fit process that includes a 3D foot scan to create a foot profile. This scan helps us determine your foot type, arch height, and any pressure points, allowing us to recommend the best insoles for your specific needs.

There are many benefits to using insoles, including:

1. Improved comfort: Insoles can provide additional cushioning and support to your feet, making your runs more comfortable.
2. Injury prevention: Insoles can help correct any foot issues or imbalances, reducing the risk of injuries such as plantar fasciitis, shin splints, and stress fractures.
3. Increased performance: By providing extra support and stability, insoles can improve your running form and reduce fatigue, allowing you to run faster and longer.
4. Reduced foot odor: Insoles can help reduce foot odor by absorbing moisture and preventing the growth of bacteria.
5. Cost-effective: Insoles are a cost-effective way to improve your running performance and reduce the risk of injury compared to buying new shoes.

We carry a wide assortment of footwear insets, from full length inserts to ¾ orthotics to heel pads. We can also guide you into the right type of insert for your foot and bio mechanics.

Brands offered include: Aetrex, Superfeet and Spenco.
