Shin Pain referred to as "Shin Splints" is a common term for pain occurring in the front and/or inside section of the shin bone (tibia). Anterior (front) shin splints is often experienced by new runners or walkers when pain occurs in the muscles at the front of the shin during exercise. Posterior shin splints (inside shin pain) is a more chronic condition occurring along the inside edge of the shin bone (tibia) & generally occurs with more active sports. Both conditions are related to excess stretching (traction) of muscles & tendons along the shin (tibia and fibula) bones.
ORTHAHEEL reduces excess stretching (traction) of the front & back leg muscles (commonly called Anterior Tibialis and Posterior Tibialis muscles) by utilising the patented angular restraining mechanism in the heel section. Thereby, relieving this common pain.
