Product Description

Size: Large: W 11 -13 / M 9 -12 | Color: Blue

If you have excessive heel, arch, foot or heel pain, or suffer from a common condition called plantar fasciitis, then you might want to try HTP Heel Seats. These heel seats feature a "Fasciitis Bar" that applies acupressure directly beneath the part of the foot where the heel meets the arch. HTP Heel Seats offer cost-effective relief for heel pain, redistributing the heel's natural fat pad and actually increasing its density and heel cushioning ability. Caution: Not recommended for those with diabetes or those with poor circulation.

4.0 out of 5 stars Worked for me, August 28, 2008

I am a runner (15-30 miles a week depending on my schedule) and developed serious heel pain. I purchased this product to use in my sneakers and felt almost instant relief.

For my shoes the fit was too tight, so I bought Dr. Scholls full length inserts (which I didn't like for running). I also bought on Amazon the ProStretch to stretch my calf muscles to prevent the heel pain from flaring up.

I gave this only 4 stars because I did not compare it with less expensive alternatives, and also because unless you do stretching exercises (for which you don't need any equipment, though for me the ProStretch makes it easier) the heel pain will recur, though perhaps not with the same severity.

Bottom line: using this product in conjunction with stretching exercises has enabled me to run pain free.

Update 2/11/09: I used these for three months, and then stopped when I bought a new pair of sneakers. So far I have not had to use them again. In conjunction with my stretching, I corrected whatever was causing me the heel pain.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worked For Me, February 6, 2010

By 

The House Elf (Uniontown, PA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: HTP Heel Seats (Health and Beauty)

First, I want to point out the fact that I work an hourly job standing and walking on concrete all day long. My symptoms were feeling like I had a thick piece of glass in both heels, especially when getting out of bed in the morning, or when first standing up after sitting down, and then just aching constantly like my heels were bruised for the rest of the time. I had difficulty going to sleep at night because of the pain in my feet.

After years of suffering with heel spurs and plantar fasciitis, HTP Heel Seats gave me the relief I desperately needed. I spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars on doctors, and tried every product I could find, but still went home at the end of the work day in severe pain, unable to sleep at night, even though I was exhausted because the pain was unbearable. I actually had to quit working for a while, because I couldn't tolerate the pain. I did the icing, the advil, the cortisone shots (in both heels), stretching exercises, tried various inserts, but nothing helped!

After all the money I'd already spent on other products that promised to provide relief, I was reluctant to try the htp heel seats because I didn't want to throw away any more money. However, I kept going to the company's website for weeks, and kept reading the testimonials, kept reading the information provided, and finally caved in one day. It was the best decision I made in regards to my heel pain.

At first, the heel seats seemed a little uncomfortable in my shoe. Not painful, but it felt like there was a "popsicle stick" inserted across my arch. Strange feeling, that. However, since I had nothing to lose, I kept wearing them. I wasn't one of the lucky ones that had "instant relief"; it probably took a couple of weeks before the pain went away, but I had been like that for such a long time.

I continued to order these every about every 6 months for a couple a years, because I was afraid of what would happen if I didn't have them, but I now I no longer need them. This product apparently actually healed the source of my pain as their website claims. My only regret is that I didn't try these first.

5.0 out of 5 stars Immediate relief from really bad PF, October 4, 2008

By 

HenrysMom (central NJ) - See all my reviews

This review is from: HTP Heel Seats (Health and Beauty)

I have suffered from Plantar Fasciitis for about 18 months. Advil and icing were no longer giving any relief. I was desperate as the PF was getting debilitating. These Heal Seats gave me great relief from day 1. I wish there was an option for securing them into shoes. I am wearing them with Birkenstocks and they do tend to slip out. This wouldn't happen with a more closed shoe style, though. Highly recommend.
