When I began having pain from Plantar Fasciitis nearly three years ago, I knew I needed more support under the arch of my foot than my fashionable shoes offered. I feared the only solution would be expensive custom-made orthotics which would be fitted to a few pairs of comfort shoes to be worn every day regardless of outfit. I learned of Soul Insole Shoe Bubble through a Facebook ad. Since it claimed to be a small gel cushion which could fit into many different types of shoes while giving arch support, I ordered one set to try. I was shocked at how transferrable the cushion was, and how it could not be seen even in shoes with open sides. Most of all, I was surprised and delighted that my heel pain quickly resolved with the addition of this product. I now own six pairs and swap them around to whatever shoes suit me. Sandals, ballerina flats, Keds sneakers or boots - the Shoe Bubbles can be used in all of my favorites. When they are looking a bit grungy from lint buildup, I just run them under warm water with a dab of dish soap and let them dry naturally. They are good to go for many more wearings. I'm not a frequent review-writer, but the Soul Insole Shoe Bubbles work just as advertised and are well worth the money. They allow me to indulge my love of shoes without being punished with shooting heel pain.

She's incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to understand my specific situation rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution.

One of the biggest takeaways for me has been how much the custom orthotics have reduced my low back pain!! I've already noticed a significant improvement, which speaks volumes about the effectiveness of her approach.

I first got a pair of maintainers in the early 2000s because of knee pain from a dance injury…read more They taught me what to do (there's a break in period) and it was the only solution to my pain. Almost ten years later, I was randomly next to the store and went in to look around. I was informed of their relaxers and it was mentioned that they would fit well in my heels. I was about to go to a wedding so I was sold. It has now been about 20 years since I bought my first pair. I've since gotten my maintainers adjusted once (thank you life time warranty) and am feeling knee pain again. I'm considering purchasing the strengtheners now that I'm older and exercising less.

These people are scammers!…read more My insurer sent me there for an ankle orthotic and when I called for an appointment they literally said "We don't do ankles.". I went there for help and they made me sign that I was satisfied with the product, and accepted it, before I even got to try it on - as a condition of trying it on, in fact. (See Pictures of what they scammed me with.) They then gave me the worst orthotic I have ever seen in my life. I took it home and tried it on and it literally left me in tears - it hurt so much. When I called the next day to complain the receptionist literally told me "If it doesn't work: you can just throw it away.". This office has photos of all of the crippled San Diego Zoo animals they have restored to mobility plastered all over their walls - and they seem proud of their work. But they couldn't wait to get me to sign off on the garbage they foisted off on me and, once they got paid, did not care one tiny bit about if it worked for me or not. The next day I went to a reputable dealer and got something that actually worked for me. But I'll never forget that they actually treated Zoo Animals better than they treated me: and I got straight up scammed by them!! And now I do not trust Hanger Prosthetics & Orthotics any farther than I can throw them: and the whole chain has lost my trust because of the bad actors in the La Jolla office. Avoid at ALL Costs!!

I developed plantar fasciitis so severe that I was forced to miss numerous days of work; it was painful to walk to my own kitchen from the living room. I was constantly soaking my feet in ice in an attempt to numb the pain. It was hard to sleep as the pain kept me awake at night, and I tried EVERYTHING I could buy in stores and online to no avail. Thank God I met Dan Morong, owner of Forward Arch, at a Home & Garden show in Riverside. Without asking me, Dan KNEW I was suffering from plantar fasciitis based on how I was gingerly walking on the inside of my feet. Dan invited me to take a seat in the booth he had set up at the fair, and he proceeded to ask me a few questions about my history with this pain, and he also had me perform a simple test with and without wearing the orthotics, which blew me away. Dan confirmed everything my podiatrist explained and confirmed with me. I inserted a pair of the orthotics Dan was marketing, and within one minute, it was as if I was walking on a cloud. Dan let me wear them as I walked around the rest of the home show, and I promised to return to share my honest opinion. I was sold 1000000% I just HAD to buy and own a pair of these orthotics. Nineteen years later, I can walk, jog, hike, etc., pain-free as a result of these orthotics, which I now own six pairs of, keeping them in various workout shoes, work boots, and dress shoes. The ONLY time I start to feel a little foot pain is when I am NOT wearing my orthotics; otherwise, I wear them with whichever footwear I have on. These orthotics are so well-made that my personal podiatrist advised me that they were the best orthotics he had ever seen, and encouraged me to continue to wear them forever if they helped me live a happier and healthier life, which they do. I am and will forever be a loyal customer of Forward Arch Orthotics. Thank you, Dan
