V/V Wedges

Varus/valgus wedges are intended to reduce pronation and suppination, which can be related to lower-extremity misalignment.

Wedges are designed to help align the calcaneus (heel) during ambulation to limit excessive pronation or suppination. They improve foot function by stabilizing weak, rotating ankles. Heel wedges can alter joint loading and actually decrease the loading on the different components of both the ankle and knee joint and decrease pain.

Our heel wedges are support the heel area firmly, and can either be moved from one pair of shoes to another, or can be installed semi-permanently using our heel lift tape. They will be effective and comfortable if one is permanently installed beneath the footbed or insole in each pair of shoes.

Sold in pairs, these can be used for medial or lateral correction by swapping the left and right wedges.
