How they relieve Heel Pain

Heel spurs are bony growths that develop on the underside of the heel bone, often causing significant pain and discomfort. They are commonly associated with plantar fasciitis - an inflammation of the plantar fascia, the connective tissue running along the bottom of the foot. Gel heel pads are widely recommended for managing the symptoms of heel spurs.

Cushioning and Shock Absorption

Mechanism: Gel heel pads provide a soft and cushioned surface for the heel, reducing the impact forces that occur when walking or running. The gel material absorbs shock, distributing the pressure more evenly across the heel.

Scientific Explanation: The human heel absorbs significant pressure with each step, which can exacerbate the pain of heel spurs. Gel heel pads reduce this pressure by providing a layer of cushioning, decreasing the force exerted on the heel bone. This shock absorption is crucial in alleviating pain and preventing further irritation of the plantar fascia.

Reducing Inflammation

Mechanism: The cushioning effect of gel heel pads minimises the stress on the plantar fascia, reducing the inflammation associated with heel spurs and plantar fasciitis.

Scientific Explanation: Inflammation is a natural response to stress and injury. By cushioning the heel and reducing the load on the plantar fascia, gel heel pads help mitigate the inflammatory response. This reduction in inflammation leads to decreased pain and promotes healing of the affected tissues.

Pressure Redistribution

Mechanism: Gel heel pads help to distribute weight and pressure more evenly across the heel and foot.

Scientific Explanation: Heel spurs cause localized pressure points on the heel, contributing to pain and discomfort. By redistributing weight, gel heel pads alleviate these pressure points. The even distribution of pressure prevents excessive strain on any one part of the heel, reducing pain and promoting better foot mechanics.
