Heel Spur Relief
A recessed pocket under the medial calcaneal tubercle that floats a painful heel spur off the shell.

Soft-walled aperture
Pairs well with heel cushioning
How it works
A recessed pocket under the medial calcaneal tubercle, the spot where the plantar fascia inserts and where inferior heel spurs form. The pocket floats the tender area off the shell while the rest of the heel cup keeps carrying and centering the heel.
Direct pressure is what makes a spur announce itself at every step; removing that pressure while preserving rearfoot control usually quiets it without giving up the mechanics.
When to prescribe it
- Inferior calcaneal spur with point tenderness
- Insertional plantar fasciitis
- Heel fat-pad atrophy with focal pain
- Post-injection heels needing temporary offload
- Patients who can't tolerate a firm heel cup at the insertion
How we build it
The pocket is placed at the medial tubercle on the patient's scan with a soft-walled aperture, depth to your Rx, and blends into the heel cup so the calcaneus stays seated and centered.
