OA Wedge Insoles | Osteoarthritis Support

The Tynor OA Wedge Insoles K18 are elastomer wedge insoles designed to help manage the foot position in the osteoarthritic knee with varus or valgus deformity. Placed inside the shoe, the wedge is designed to alter the leverage at the heel to support gradual management of the condition. The soft, non-compressible elastomer is made to provide cushioning and shock absorption, and the easy stick-on application helps hold the wedge accurately in position.

Features

• Optimised thickness designed for wedge leverage at the heel.
• Soft, non-compressible elastomer for cushioning and shock absorption.
• Easy stick-on application for accurate placement within the footwear.
• Odourless, washable and hypoallergenic with a long functional life.
• Flexes slightly as you walk for added comfort.
