Published July 29th, 2025 by Dr. Daner

If you’re a runner, chances are you’ve dealt with some form of discomfort—whether it’s shin splints, foot fatigue, knee pain, or tight hipsRunning is an excellent way to stay fit, but the repetitive impact can wear on your body over time. That’s where custom shoe inserts can make a major difference. Unlike generic insoles, custom orthotics are designed specifically for your feet, supporting proper alignment and helping you run more efficiently while reducing the risk of injury. When it comes to the benefits of shoe insertsespecially for runners, the right fit can mean the difference between progress and persistent pain.

Custom Shoe Inserts for Pain-Free Running

Why Support Matters for Runners

Every step you take sends shock through your feet and up the kinetic chain—into your ankles, knees, hips, and even your lower back. If there’s any imbalance in the way your foot strikes the ground, your entire body feels it. That’s why properly designed shoe inserts for running aren’t just about foot comfort. They’re about creating a solid foundation that reduces strain on joints and muscles. Runners with flat feet, high arches, or pronation issues can especially benefit from added support that redistributes pressure and stabilizes movement.

At Markson Chiropractic & Medical, we offer Foot Levelers custom orthotics due to their unmatched precision and quality. Specifically, the XP3 line is designed with runners and athletes in mind. These lightweight yet durable orthotics offer increased shock absorption, improved energy return, and full support through every phase of your stride. Another great option is the XP3+, which provides enhanced durability and control for high-mileage or competitive runners. These models don’t just cushion—they actively correct imbalances and help optimize how your feet function on the move.

A Customized Fit for a Better Run

Foot Levelers orthotics are based on a 3D digital scan of your feet and posture, ensuring a precise fit that works with your unique biomechanics.
