Hi.
 I have rolled in ankles or somthing like that,where my feet sort of
roll inwords from the ankle.  The docter says that I could get heel cups
to try and straiten it out. I really hope that it works because it
makes my knees hurt when I run.  Anyway,I can't run in the normal
heel cups because they are to hard. I would have to get other ones
just for running.(the ones for running are leather instead of plastic.)
I was wondering if any one else has these and if so do they make a
difference?

thanks,CHELSEA

I wouldn't recommend heel cups at all. You may find they work for awhile
but they are just too unstable. You are much better off with orthodics.
You probably have more than an unstable heel counter and the orthodics
will assist greatly.

Based on your address I know of a person who makes very good orthodics
if you wish to see if they would help. If so please contact me via
netmail.

How much do a pair of orthodics cost?
