High Arch Foot Pain

High Arches Need Support Too!
Studies have revealed that approximately 15% of all people have neutral foot arches. This means that 85% of people have either low arches (flat feet) or high arches.
People with high arches can experience forefoot pain that results from the foot distributing mostly over only two points. A lot of pressure is placed on the heel and on the forefoot – the metatarsal region.
Ideally, weight should be evenly distributed over the foot as we walk or run. With uneven distribution, the foot arch will struggle to function correctly and will lose balance, alignment and stability.
The foot arch has many functions with the primary function of moving our weight from the rear of our feet – the heels – to the front of our feet – the forefoot – as we walk or run. This weight transition is important as it helps our feet to absorb shock.
An easy solution to ensure proper foot arch function is to support our feet; particularly the foot arch, by wearing good quality Orthotic Arch Support Insoles.
Properly designed and fitted Orthotic Arch Supports should fill some of the voids on the bottom of the foot and help with even weight distribution along with motion control.
It is not necessary for the Insole to press against the arch so that no void exists. The high arch needs the ability to rest which will flatten out the foot to allow weight distribution over the whole foot rather than predominantly on only the heel and forefoot.
Orthotic Arch Supports that are molded to press against a high arch will only exacerbate the problem in that it supports the misalignment and uneven weight distribution that exists already.
People with high arches sometimes think they need extra high Orthotic Arch Support that fit snugly against the arch. This only enables the tripod weight distribution that an Orthotic is trying to correct.
The most doctor recommended Orthotic Arch Support Insoles are the Spenco Orthotic Arch Supports. They carry a one year unconditional guarantee, have received the acceptance of the American Podiatric Medical Association and are available in both full length and 3/4 length in men’s size 6-15 and women’s size 3-12.
