AliMed^® Viscoelastic Polymer Heel Cup

AliMed® Viscoelastic Polymer Heel Cup features computer-generated, biomechanically engineered visco-flow control that dampens and reduces heel strike rebound velocity. Shock forces are a product of mass (weight) and velocity (speed). If you can slow rebound velocity and alter its direction, you dampen and dissipate shock forces. Press your thumb into the center of a shock-absorbing heel pad or cup, then withdraw it rapidly. If the material recovers just in time for the next heel strike, it's providing maximum shock-force reduction. If the material rebounds instantly, the shock force is absorbed by the skeletal structure. Heel cups disperse shock waves from vertical to horizontal. May be placed on wedges or glued in place.
