Foot Shox Insoles Relieve Arthritis-Related
Foot Pain, Knee Pain and Back Pain
Translated from Greek, the word arthritis literally
means “fire in the joints.” The ailment that afflicts more than
40 million Americans can cause excruciating foot pain, knee pain
and back pain. Arthritis is not a single ailment; it’s actually
more than 100 diseases that cause pain in nearly every part of the
body.
Four forms of arthritis are the most prevalent
causes of arthritic foot pain, knee pain and back pain: osteoarthritis,
rheumatoid arthritis, spinal arthritis and traumatic arthritis.
Osteoarthritis: If osteoarthritis is the culprit,
the cartilage that cushions your joints gradually softens and wears
away. Your bones then rub against one another, triggering
arthritis-related pain. Osteoarthritis tends to damage your larger,
weight-bearing joints, causing foot pain, knee pain and back pain.
Osteoarthritis is the leading cause of disability in middle-aged and
older people.
Rheumatoid arthritis: Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory
disease triggered by your immune system malfunctioning and turning
on your body. Rheumatoid arthritis destroys joint cartilage and lining,
which causes foot pain, knee pain and back pain. Rheumatoid arthritis
is the most crippling form of the disease affecting people of all ages.
Spinal Arthritis (Ankylosing Spondylitis): Spinal arthritis
afflicts some 300,000 Americans, mostly men. Spinal arthritis causes
severe back pain that often moves up to the neck, which can make turning
the head, bending or stooping very difficult.
Traumatic arthritis: Traumatic arthritis develops after injuries,
such as broken bones, torn ligaments and sprains in your feet, knees
and back. Traumatic arthritis damages the cartilage over time and causes
foot pain, knee pain and back pain.
Doctors recommend a variety of arthritis treatments, including physical
therapy, low-impact exercises, anti-inflammatory medications and
surgery for the worst conditions. However, shock-absorbing insoles are
often an overlooked remedy.
The pounding impact associated with walking and standing on hard surfaces
aggravates and worsens arthritis-related foot pain, knee pain and back
pain. Foot Shox insoles relieve arthritis foot pain, knee pain and back
pain better than any other insole product on the market. That’s because
Foot Shox insoles are made entirely of Poron®, the #1 shock-absorbing
insole material in the world. An independent lab rated Poron #1 for
absorbing painful impact forces — superior to latex foam, gel, sponge
rubber, neoprene, vinyl sponge or viscoelastic.
Orthopedic Research Labs recruited patients involved in an exercise
research program at the Arthritis Research Institute to test Foot
Shox insoles. All the patients suffered from foot pain, knee pain and
back pain caused by arthritis. After wearing Foot Shox insoles for a
month, 95% of the patients in the test said their foot pain and joint
pain was eliminated or reduced.
Dr. Aaron Sivan, Ph.D. in exercise physiology, supervised the Foot Shox
insoles test. “We introduced the Foot Shox insoles, and we let people
exercise with them for four weeks. They had less discomfort and less
stress on the knees and feet to a significant degree, “ Dr. Sivan reported.
The more shock absorption
in your insoles, the less arthritis foot pain, knee pain and
back pain.
