Shoe Heel Cushions have quite a few benefits:
Reduces heel pressure — absorbs some pressure on the heel while walking or standing.
Can help reduce heel pain — especially during prolonged standing or walking.
Absorbs shock/impact — reduces impact on the heel when walking on hard floors.
Enhances shoe comfort — provides a comfortable feel in hard or thin-soled shoes.
Helps increase heel stability — some types of cushion help keep the heel in the right position inside the shoe.
Can be helpful in reducing symptoms in some cases of heel spur or plantar fasciitis, but this is not an alternative to primary treatment.
How long to use: Try using it for a short time initially. If pain increases or numbness/tingling in the feet occurs after using the cushion, it is best to stop using it.
