Are they okay to use if I have Diabetes?

Our orthotics will specifically help and support Diabetics feet with cushioning and support to help stop foot pain.

The question we’re often asked is “are orthotic innersoles okay to be used for Diabetics?” and the answer to that is yes.

We generally use the ultra-soft orthotic to add more cushioning and more support to the Diabetic foot. These does a number of things. It decreases the pressure under the foot where Diabetics are prone for ulceration, corns and calluses and it also helps to support foot which unloads the joints in the mid-foot and helps to lessen the effect of any Diabetic neuropathy.
