Discomfort tends to be worse the day after exercising, and pain can increase during physical activities like walking, running and jumping, as the tendon is placed under increased strain.

Our insoles for Achilles tendonitis provide unrivalled heel support. You can use any one of the insoles available from our online shop to keep pain and discomfort at bay.

For even more support and relief, you can also combine an OrthoSole insoles with a 6mm or 8mm heel lift. We would recommend choosing the 6mm option if your shoes are particularly tight-fitting.
