...orthotics for arch support or the shoe inserts or whatever they are called, are they any good?

i used to wear arch supports myself--tried various kinds including dr scholls. then i started wearing asics shoes and found i had no need to wear arch supports. that is not the case with nike or adidas or reebok shoes for which i definitely need to wear arch supports.
but if the condition is serious the person needs to go for customized orthotics through a podiatrist. also any weight loss will help alleviate the need for arch support while weight gain will lead to an aggravation of the problem.

The shoe inserts that I would recommend are 'WalkFits." Get the platinum version. I suffered from plantar fasciitis and once I started using those walkfits I felt no mare pain. You can get those inserts on Amazon, or directly from the Walkfit site ($19.95).

I have 2 pairs of custom orthotics from a podiatrist in my hiking boots or main work sneakers (that I take out when I start having issues). Other than that, I get some insoles from those sports stores, forgot the name. Basically you heat them up for a few seconds, put them in your shoes and immediately step in. I use those for other asics sneakers which I use for all other workouts. Very good for high impact exercises as well, soft. For zumba, I have zumba shoes, flexible enough that don't appear to be breaking my feet in half when I am doing some moves. Other than that, I buy not-so-glam looking sandals and pumps that have a decent arch support or can do with those gel support insoles. For all other suck-it-up occasions I wear whatever, luckily there aren't too many.

forgot to add: I also win the ungliest-shoes award in most settings.
this is something I have pushed on to next birth. May I get to sport dozens of pretty shoes in next life.

Soul and arch support are a sign of middle-middle age.

swapna, do you believe in soulmates? Do you think you have one?

hm...I see..
Let me spell it out for you...
When people talk about Soul support, Soul matching, Soul partner and other such Soul crap, it is a sign of middle, middle age. You may not understand it bcz you are way past that stage - reverting back to your elementary school grammar/spelling stage (your sole skill that you still remember). Do you get a lolly pop after your weekly spelling test ?

The inability to understand the "pun" is another sign.
