Editor’s Note: This post has been completely revamped and updated for accuracy on May 2022 and reflects up-to-date information on how to tie shoes for women with heel pain.
Did you know that women who suffer from heel pain can benefit from lacing their shoes in a specific way to get the full support and benefits that the shoes have to offer? Finding a pair of supportive shoes is the first step when it comes to helping treat and prevent your heel pain. However, if you don’t tie your shoes properly, you won’t get the full benefits that the shoes have to offer.
Lacing your shoes properly helps prevent your feet from moving excessively inside the shoes. When there is too much foot movement or heel slippage the feet are enough longer supported by the shoes.
