About Golf Orthotics

Stability is the key to a great golf swing!

Foot pain among golfers is common. Walking on uneven terrain, the rotational effect of the golf swing, miles of trekking all contribute to an over-use situation which can affect the feet. Common foot issues include plantar fasciitis (heel pain), arch pain, metatarsalgia (fore foot pain) and knee pain. Providing proper support with foot orthotics can go a long way toward eliminate most foot discomfort.

An added benefit to custom foot orthotics is that by providing a more stable platform for the feet, your golf swing can improve. It is important to note, however, that the P.G.A. does not allow you to “create a stance” by altering the shoe or using an insert which is designed to specifically affect the golfer’s swing.

 Golf shoes generally have a removable sock liner which allows the orthotics to be full length. The trim shape of a golf shoe insert  is generally more pointed than a running shoe design.
