An Introduction To The Revolutionary Fascia-Bar™
Many Heel That Pain products utilize the patented Fascia-Bar, a technology not found in any other orthotic on the market. A double blind clinical study undertaken by the University of Iowa concluded that Fascia-Bar technology is two times as effective as features offered by a comparable leading brand orthotic. Heel That Pain customers report a remarkable satisfaction rate of more than 90% when using Fascia-Bar inserts to resolve heel pain. This article will familiarize you with the Fascia-Bar and explain why Heel That Pain’s Plantar Fasciitis products offer a truly unique methodology for helping with heel pain.
In the condition of Plantar Fasciitis, the elastic plantar fascia ligament, which spans the arch of the foot from heel to ball, can become injured in a variety of ways. This strong ligament is designed to spring with the bounce of each step, but an irregular gait, obesity, improper footwear and other factors can increase the range of plantar fascia movement beyond healthy norms. Inflammation and small tissue tears can be the result. At the same time, the fatty pad protecting the bottom of the heel bone can become also develop pain in many Plantar Fasciitis sufferers, and bone spurs may form on the heel, prodding into the worn tissue. Taken in combination, these elements can create a condition of moderate to severe pain. Heel That Pain orthotics deliver results with a three-fold design:
