EVA Heel Raises are designed to provide effective heel elevation for orthotic insole adaptations. These raises are ideal for building a permanent lift in the heel area, ensuring better alignment and comfort for the user. With an adhesive backing, the raises can be quickly and easily applied to an insole, or they can be secured with contact adhesive for a more durable bond, especially useful when modifying finished insoles on an orthopaedic grinder.

Conditions Treated with Heel Raises

Heel Raises are effective in treating various conditions that require elevation and support in the heel area. Here are some of the conditions that can benefit from the use of heel raises:

1. Leg Length Discrepancies:
   Heel raises help balance leg length differences, improving posture and gait, and reducing strain on the lower back and hips.

2. Achilles Tendonitis:
   Reduces strain on the Achilles tendon by elevating the heel, promoting healing and reducing discomfort.

3. Post-Surgical Recovery:
   Assists in maintaining proper alignment and reducing strain on the heel and Achilles tendon following surgery.

By addressing these conditions Heel Raises provide a simple yet effective solution for enhancing comfort and promoting healing.
