Silicone heel pads and Tuli's

The fat tissue of the heel acts as a true cushion around the calcaneus, absorbing the impact with the ground. Over time, however, this protection can decrease.

The heel comes to rest directly on the ground, with deleterious effects on the bones of the foot and, by extension, on all lower limbs and the spine. Sometimes, painful calcifications can develop, leading to heel spurs or Achilles tendonopathies, up to Haglund's disease.

Heel pads, with their honeycomb structure, protect the heel by absorbing shocks during walking or running.

The material of our heel pads does not harden, but remains soft over time, and is very durable. It is therefore also suitable for those who wear them during sports or other strenuous physical activities.
