ViscoSpot - Plantar Fasciitis Heel Cushions
Reduces the shock load of every step you take.
Bauerfeind’s ViscoSpot heel cushions target areas of the heel where pain originates and comforts it with soft pads that distribute pressure evenly to relieve pain and discomfort. (2 insoles included)
Cushioned Feel For Every Step
Bauerfeind’s ViscoSpot heel cups act like shock absorbers for your heels. ViscoSpot cushions the impact of your feet with the ground and allows a pain-free stride. The special soft viscoelastic material absorbs shock loads and counteracts pain triggered by overloading when walking or standing.
Targets Painful Areas With Perfect Fit
With three softness zones, different levels of firmness distribute pressure evenly and make every step more comfortable. The individual zones work seamlessly together, with a softer blue cushion spot placed where heel pain originates. ViscoSpot heel cups are durable, with a fit that can adapt to every shape of shoe and to every foot.

ViscoHeel - Heel Cups
The viscoelastic shock absorber.
The ViscoHeel heel cushion provides a soft cushion for the heel and offers instant relief for acute heel pain. It absorbs impact to keep pressure off the ankle, knee, and hip. Pain caused by pressure is therefore reduced. The resulting relief is felt all the way into the spine and particularly reduces strain on tendons, ligaments, and calf muscles.
Helps Alleviate Achilles Tendon Discomfort
The heel cushion can be very helpful in cases where the cause of pain is located above the heel, rather than under it – such as a painful Achilles tendon (achillodynia) or Haglund's deformity. The heel cushion can reduce the swelling quicker in inflamed Achilles tendons. It provides relief in cases of Haglund's deformity.
Comfortable Foot Climate
ViscoHeel offers an anatomical fit and optimally adapts to the shape of the foot and shoe. The hindfoot is gently guided during the heel-to-toe movement to promote a natural movement while walking. The heel cushion is made of high-quality, non-slip silicone that is gentle on the skin, easy to clean, and particularly durable.

ViscoPed - Gel Insoles
Comfort For The Entire Foot
The ViscoPed viscoelastic foot insole takes away typical pressure peaks in cases of pain on the sole of the foot and spreads them across a larger surface. The heel and metatarsal head are also relieved by extra soft special cushions. Not only the foot, but also the ankle, knee, hip and spine will benefit from its shock-absorbing effect.
Enhanced Arch Support
The splay foot pad behind the metatarsal head gently stabilizes a flattened and widened transversal foot arch. It also increases the entire pressure-sensitive surface and, therefore, improves the distribution of pressure.
Comfortable Foot Climate
ViscoPed optimally adapts to the shape of the foot and shoe. The foot orthosis is made of high-quality silicone that is gentle on the skin, easy to clean and durable. Ventilation openings ensure a comfortable foot climate.

ViscoPed S - Plantar Fasciitis Shoe Insoles
Lasting Comfort For the Entire Foot
Bauerfeind's ViscoPed S viscoelastic foot insole relieves typical pressure peaks in cases of pain on the sole of the foot and spreads them across a larger surface. The heel and metatarsal head are also relieved by extra soft special cushions. Not only the foot, but also the ankle, knee, hip, and spine will benefit from its shock-absorbing effect. The inlays provide a particularly soft cushioning effect without any gentle arch support under the forefoot, which can be irritating to sensitive feet.
Comfortable Foot Climate
The ViscoPed S optimally adapts to the shape of the foot and shoe. The foot orthosis is made of high-quality silicone that is gentle on the skin, easy to clean, and particularly durable. Ventilation openings ensure a comfortable foot climate.

ViscoHeel K - Heel Wedges
Evens Out the Heel
If the heels are angled outward due to bandy legs (varus alignment) or inward due to knock knees (valgus alignment), the heel's edges can be particularly painful. The ViscoHeel K heel cushion offers effective padding in this area, while its raised side straightens the heel out again. It provides relief with every step from the foot to the lower spine and prevents osteoarthritis from developing in the joints.
Durable and Gentle on the Skin
Only a few heel cushions can withstand daily use over long periods. ViscoHeel K is made of high-quality silicone and is gentle on your skin, easy to clean and durable. It sits under your heel with every step without slipping.
