DESCRIPTION

The ViscoBalance heel cushion helps in the realignment of a canting stance and the rebalancing of body posture for patients with uneven leg lengths. In closed shoes, the heel cushion can equalise differences of three, five, or ten millimeters. Pain is relieved and permanent damage to the joints and spine is prevented. ViscoBalance gently cushions the heel in the shoe, reducing pressure pain. The heel raise lengthens the leg by the relevant millimeters, which also alleviates Achilles tendon discomfort, as the strain on the tendon insertion is relieved alongside the hindfoot, allowing inflammations to heal faster. The viscoelastic heel cushion optimally adapts to the shape of the foot and shoe. It can be swapped from one shoe to another. It is made of high-quality, non-slip silicone and is gentle on your skin, easy to clean and particularly durable.

EQUALIZING AND RELIEVING

A difference in length between the right and left leg inevitably leads to one-sided loading of the locomotor apparatus. This causes pain in the ankle, knee, hip and spine. ViscoBalance heel cushions help restore balance to the body by comfortably and gently cushioning the heel in the shoe and elongating the shorter leg by three, five or ten millimeters. The slight elongation of the leg also helps alleviate pain in the Achilles tendon. This is because as soon as the strain on the hindfoot is reduced, the tendon insertion is also relieved and irritation can heal more effectively.

DURABLE AND GENTLE ON SKIN

Only a few heel cushions can withstand daily use over long periods. ViscoBalance is made of high-quality silicone that is gentle on your skin, easy to clean and, thanks to modern production techniques, particularly durable. It can be swapped from one shoe to another. ViscoBalance sits under the heel with every step, without slipping.
