It worked for me and my son so I think this is the way to go. You could try over the counter inserts first to see how your feet do. Then if necessary get the custom ones. Good luck I know how painful it can be.

Save yourself lots of money and frustration. Go to a shoestore and buy SPENCO shoe inserts (about $20 a pair) . Recommended by my Podiatrist , rather than expensive orthodics. I had immediate relief . This after fighting PF caused by years of long distance running. None of the other remedies worked. Not stretching, nor bottles or anything. I have used these inserts in all my shoes for thirty years and have once or twice had a PF flare up, but with the inserts I could walk pain free. lHave tried other inserts and the did not work.
