Request More Information
The Vasyli-Armstrong Sensitive Feet orthotic addresses the key problem areas for the sensitive foot – shearing / friction and pressure. By utilizing patented Glidesoft® technology, this unique combination of construction and materials has been scientifically shown to reduce shear pressures by over 50%* and the onset of plantar ulcers by over 70%**, compared to conventional specialized insoles.
The dorsal surface of the Vasyli-Armstrong orthotic moves with the plantar surface of the foot. This dramatically reduces shearing/frictional forces. This in-turn assists In the reduction of skin lesions and the potential for infection/ulceration.
