Arch pain relief
When looking at an adult foot from the inner side, you'll usually notice an upward curve in the middle. This is called an arch. Tendons, which are the tight bands that attach at the heel and foot bones, form the arch.Several tendons in your foot and lower leg work together to form the arch in your foot. The arches are the primary structures of the body that absorb shocks when we are on our feet. When the tendons all pull adequately, the foot forms a moderate, normal arch. When tendons do not pull together properly, there is little or no arch. This is called flat foot or fallen arch. Painful or achy feet, especially in the areas of the arches and heels is a symptom of flat feet and fallen arches.
