Medi-Dyne Pain Solution and Treatment for Heel, Back, and Shins

What Causes Heel Pain?

Millions of people suffer from heel pain each year. But what actually causes heel pain? The muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints in your body act as links in an interconnective chain. These links work together to allow you to accomplish basic motions like sitting, walking, and running. If any one of these links is injured or not functioning properly the entire chain suffers. For millions of people each year the first breakdown they realize manifests itself as heel pain. When this happens, trauma often occurs in the plantar fascia (arch) and the pain is felt in the base of the heel. This heel pain is a condition known as plantar fasciitis.

What is Plantar Fasciitis?

Your plantar fascia is a thick band of tissue which runs across the bottom of your foot connecting your heel bone to your toes. Normally, it is a shock absorber, supporting the arch in your foot. But, if tension becomes too great it can create small tears in the fascia causing it to become irritated or inflamed.

Is There A Solution for Plantar Fasciitis?

A two-year study done by the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) found that 88% of those who used the world's #1 selling Tuli's Heel Cups combined with tendon & plantar fascia stretches experienced relief from their symptoms.

Why Is Deep Stretching So Important?

Maintaining good flexibility throughout the interconnective chain of the lower leg (ankle, Achilles tendon, Calf) is the best way to heal and prevent the recurrence of plantar fasciitis. In fact, during the AOFAS study, researchers found that it was the combination of heel cups and targeted stretching exercises that provided the most significant relief from heel pain.

Proper stretching and strengthening programs can correct functional risk factors such as tightness of the calves, and weak Achilles tendons or foot muscles, providing both immediate benefits and long-term healing. 10 minutes or more of stretching and strengthening each day is one of the best ways to prevent heel pain.

Medically Proven Solutions for Plantar Fasciitis ... To Put You Back On Your Feet

The World's #1 Selling Heel Cup – TuliGEL™ Heel Cups

The biomechanically designed Tuli's Heel Cup provides immediate relief by cushioning the area of pain and elevating the calcaneous (heel bone) to take pressure off the Achilles tendon, lessening the tension and allowing you to regain flexibility.

Tuli's patented multi-cell, multi-layer "waffle" design absorbs shock and returns impact energy just like the system naturally found in your feet. Upon impact the waffle construction bears down and rotates with the normal motion of the foot to absorb the shock of walking and running. And just like a spring, Tuli's returns that energy back for maximum performance.
