Does this sound like your child?
It starts the same way almost every time…
Everything seems fine...
Then your child mentions:
"My heel hurts."
After training they limp.
The next morning they walk a little differently.
After a few days of rest, they seem almost back to normal.
So they return to sport.
Then...
the heel pain comes back.
Again.
And again.
And again.
If this cycle sounds familiar…
Keep reading.
Because the reason it keeps happening might not be what you’ve been told.
For many families, this cycle repeats for months.
Why does the pain keep coming back?
Your child rests.
The pain settles.
They return to sport.
The pain comes back.
Why?
Because while they're resting...
the painful part of the heel is no longer being repeatedly loaded.
When they return to running and jumping...
that repeated loading starts again.
That's why so many parents find themselves stuck in the same frustrating cycle.
What if there was a way to rest the heel...
...without asking your child to stop doing what they love?
Introducing Solemaids.
Most heel inserts are designed to cushion the heel.
Solemaids were designed with a completely different philosophy.
Using an innovative floating heel design developed in Denmark, Solemaids are designed to remove contact beneath the painful part of the heel.
Rather than simply adding more cushioning...
the goal is to rest the heel, not the child.

Why parents find Solemaids so different.
Most parents tell us they've never seen anything quite like them.
That's because Solemaids don't simply add more cushioning.
Their unique floating heel design is intended to work in a completely different way.
Rather than asking,
"How do we cushion the painful area?"
The question becomes,
"How do we remove pressure completely from the painful area?"
It's a different philosophy, shown clearly in the images above.
And for many parents, that's exactly why they book a Parent Clarity Call.
They understand that we can rest the heel, not the child.
Could Solemaids be suitable for your child?
Not every child requires Solemaids.
That's why every recommendation begins with an individual assessment.
During your appointment, using state of the art VALD testing technology, we assess:
• Your child's symptoms
• When the pain occurs
• Activity levels
• Footwear
• Clinical presentation
• Current severity
Only then do we determine whether Solemaids may be appropriate.
