Insoles are an effective tool in managing general foot disorders, but each individual's pathological condition and needs are different. Pathology-specific insoles designed for a specific disorder offer more effective results by optimizing the benefits provided by insoles, reducing pain, and enhancing mobility.

1. Plantar Fasciitis
• Features: It has a special arch structure supporting the middle part of the shoe sole to reduce pressure on the plantar fascia. Additionally, using soft material in the heel area reduces pain.
• Advantages: It reduces strain on the sole of the foot, prevents inflammation, and supports healing.
2. Hallux Valgus
• Features: Insoles that maintain the alignment of the big toe and reduce pressure on the big toe joint.
• Advantages: It alleviates pain in mild deformities without the need for surgery and reduces joint friction.
3. Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)
• Features: Insoles designed to relieve metatarsal heads according to deformities seen in RA patients.
• Advantages: It reduces pressure on sensitive areas, controls pain, and increases walking stability.
4. Flat Feet (Pes Planus)
• Features: Includes insoles that provide arch support to maintain the arch structure and correct foot alignment.
• Advantages: Reduces stress on the ankle, knee, and hip, and corrects biomechanical imbalances.
5. High Arches (Pes Cavus)
• Features: Designed for high-arched feet, providing support across the entire sole and softness at the heel and metatarsal areas.
• Advantages: Reduces pressure evenly across the sole of the foot, alleviating pain.
6. Metatarsalgia
• Features: Insoles supported by metatarsal pads, reducing the pressure on the front of the foot.
• Advantages: Reduces pain during walking and maintains balance of the front of the foot.
7. Achilles Tendinopathy
• Features: Includes special designs that reduce pressure on the Achilles tendon and provide cushioning in the heel area.
• Advantages: Supports the healing process by reducing tension on the tendon.
Factors Considered in Designing Pathology-Specific Insoles
Pathology-specific insoles offer more effective results than standard solutions. These insoles alleviate pain, prevent the progression of deformities, and enhance individuals' quality of life. Especially in foot and ankle disorders, a personalized approach can significantly increase treatment success.
