Insoles (orthotics) help by addressing issues originating in the feet and lower limbs, thereby reducing stress on the knees:

Improved Alignment: Misalignment in the feet (such as overpronation or flat feet, which causes the knee joint to turn inward) can put excess strain on the knee joint. Insoles with arch support and deep heel cups help to correct this alignment, reducing unfavorable pressure on the knees.

Shock Absorption: Quality insoles, especially those made with high-density or specialized foam, absorb a significant amount of the impact force from the ground with each step. This minimizes the jarring shock transmitted up the leg to the knee joint, which can help prevent further damage and alleviate pain, particularly for conditions like osteoarthritis or during high-impact activities.

Pressure Offloading: For conditions like medial knee osteoarthritis (pain on the inner side of the knee), specific insoles (like lateral-wedge insoles) can help shift the load and pressure away from the most damaged areas of the joint.

Metatarsalgia, or pain in the ball of the foot, is most often caused by increased pressure on the forefoot, leading to inflammation and irritation. Common causes include high-impact activities like running and jumping, improper or high-heeled footwear, being overweight or obese, and foot conditions like arthritis, bunions, stress fractures, or Morton's neuroma. Other factors include age-related loss of the protective fat pad, tight calf muscles, and anatomical foot deformities.
