Orthaheel Flip Flops – Created & Approved by PodiatristsFor decades flip flops have had a bad rap among foot doctors. Many doctors still believe that flip flops are flimsy, offer no support, and put extra strain on lower body muscles and joints. There is, however; a growing recognition in the medical community of the distinction between healthy flip flops and unhealthy flip flops. Several podiatrists and foot care experts have even taken it upon themselves to step up to the challenge of designing a truly healthy, therapeutic flip flop. Orthaheel flip flops - created, approved, and recommended by podiatrists – are one of the most medically respected orthotic flip flops on the market today. What is the difference between a healthy flip flop and an unhealthy flip flop? The footbed mostly. An unhealthy flip flop is a thin, flat piece of plastic or leather that provides little or no shock absorption. As a result when the foot connects with the ground, particularly on sidewalks and other hard surfaces, there is a great deal of unnecessary stress to the arch, ball of foot, and ankle which can result in pain and discomfort. The foot flattens in an attempt to compensate resulting in functional flat foot and increasing the wearer’s risk of developing plantar fasciitis. When a flip flop sandal is properly constructed the outsole is solid enough to absorb impact and the footbed is cushioned enough to absorb shock. The footbed is also orthopedically contoured to support the heel and the arch and prevent excessive pronation. Orthaheel flip flops have all of these properties. Orthaheel After Sport SandalsOrthaheel slides make the perfect after sport sandal. Whether in the locker room, around the campsite, or at the city pool; these fully waterproof sandals provide the support and comfort your weary feet crave. Athletes of all stripes from soccer players, to hikers, to swimmers can benefit from a supportive, orthotic sandal. After being trapped in a stuffy athletic shoe for an intense workout or sports competition, your feet need some room to breath. What they don't need is an unsupportive piece of plastic. Orthaheel after sport sandals not only control pronation; they also correct any faulty biomechanics in your gait and provide excellent shock absorption. Orthaheel sandals also work well as shower shoes to prevent fungal infection.
