A: The O.C. Channel was conceived to relief plantar fasciitis and liberate heel spur.

Although you will feel relief and You can break in the orthotics by wearing them for a couple of hours a day for a week or two, to allow your feet to adjust to the new support that O.C. Channel orthotics provide. Within a week, you should find the orthotic to be completely comfortable and provide the expected results.

A:It all depends on how often you will use the orthotics. We recommend our customers to replace their orthotics every 6 to 9 months. Even a great way to determine when to change your orthotics is when you don’t feel the right support and relief expected.

A: The O.C. Channel insole is specifically designed to relieve pain from plantar fasciitis and heel spurs. To select the right insole, start by identifying your arch type: low or flat, medium, or high.

• Flat (low) arch: If your footprint shows most or all of the sole of your foot, you likely have a flat arch. This means your arch may collapse when walking or running, leading to muscle strain and potential joint problems.

• Neutral (medium) arch: If the middle part of your footprint is partially visible, about half-filled, you have a neutral arch. A neutral arch naturally supports your body weight and accommodates normal pronation, ensuring balanced foot mechanics.

• High arch: If your footprint shows minimal contact, with a large gap between the heel and the ball of your foot, you likely have a high arch. High arches can place excessive stress on joints and muscles, increasing the risk of discomfort or injury.

By determining your arch type, you can select the O.C. Channel insole that offers the optimal support and relief tailored to your foot structure.

THE ROOT CAUSE OF PLANTAR FASCIITIS FINALLY EXPLAINED

For decades, medical treatments have focused on relieving symptoms, with cortisone injections, physiotherapy, and orthotics dominating the market. However, these approaches often fail to address the underlying biomechanical dysfunctions that cause plantar fasciitis and heel spurs. For the first time, groundbreaking research has identified the primary culprit: the flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tendon.

The FHL tendon is a critical component of foot biomechanics. It originates in the back of the leg, crosses the ankle, and inserts at the base of the distal phalanx of the big toe. During walking and running, the FHL tendon stabilizes the medial arch and controls the downward movement of the big toe. More importantly, it generates over 60% of the propulsion force during the push-off phase of the gait cycle.

Research shows that the FHL tendon endures 40% to 60% more tension than the tendons connected to the other toes. This high load explains why the FHL tendon plays a dominant role in the tensioning of the plantar fascia. As the big toe flexes during propulsion, the FHL tendon tightens, transferring significant force to the plantar fascia. This repeated tension leads to microtears and inflammation at the attachment point of the fascia to the heel bone.

Unlike the tendons supporting the smaller toes, which distribute forces more evenly, the alignment and biomechanical role of the FHL concentrate pressure on the medial plantar region. This unique dynamic explains why the FHL tendon is central to the development of plantar fasciitis and heel spurs.

The O.C. Channel relief insole. People with pain related to plantar fasciitis and heel spur will tell you how much you can become dysfunctional since you hardly can walk with that pain.

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common conditions causing heel pain. It involves inflammation of the plantar fascia — a tough, fibrous band of tissue that runs along the sole of the foot. The plantar fascia attaches to the heel bone (calcaneus) and to the base of the toes. It helps support the arch of the foot and has an important role in normal foot mechanics during walking.

Tension or stress in the plantar fascia increases when you place weight on the foot, such as withstanding. The tension also increases when you push off on the ball of the foot and toes. Both of these motions occur during normal walking or running. With overuse or in time, the fascia loses some of its elasticity or resilience and can become irritated with routine daily activities.

The O.C. Channel technology was designed to release the tension on the fascia and liberate heel spur.

The results of the patent research confirm that the technology used for The OC Channel is UNIQUE and it is the first technology ever invented and patented for plantar fasciitis and heel spur issues. It is how the arch of the foot is firmly supported while the tension is released on the fascia and heel spur is liberated.

It’s all about the longitudinal channel and how it is aligned under the foot.

The only technology patented that really works. This new technology was proven for more than 30 years specially with professional athletes from many professional sport leagues like NHL, PGA, NBA, ALPIN SKI , etc.. that require stability, sturdy base, comfort, and performance. The technology will not only release the plantar fasciitis and liberate heel spur but will also prevent injuries.

The O.C. Channel insole if offering 3 different arch models: Normal, Low and High arches. You need to choose the Low arch model for a flat foot. If you think you are between 2 arch heights, choose the lowest one.

Actual treatments are invasive, painful and expensive

Just think about:

1) The cortisone injection which is painful and which in some cases can damage the cartilage of the joint or deteriorate the tendons in the injected area, (not to mention the delays of access to a doctor can be excessively long)

2) Radial shockwave therapy that is excessively painful and expensive.

3) All absorbent cushions (soles) found in all pharmacies that are "not a technology": they only offer absorption

4) Not to mention all the orthotics under prescription of a health professional or all the treatments of physio, masso, osteo, chiro, kine and so on ... which can be excessively expensive in the end without too many results on the symptoms ...

The O.C. Channel technology was originally developed for a customized application, inspiring inventor Marc Cormier to make this groundbreaking technology accessible to everyone. With over 30 years of expertise in biomechanical design, Cormier adapted his innovation into a prefabricated orthosis. This advancement offers sufferers rapid relief from heel pain, promoting faster healing and accelerating the resorption of the Lenoir spur.

Affordable and effective, this orthosis enables individuals—athletes—to quickly resume their favorite activities, whether walking, running, or tackling everyday tasks, without delay.

Notably, the technology has gained recognition from medical professionals, including doctors and physiotherapists, further validating its transformative impact in the field of podiatry.

By making this technology widely accessible, the O.C. Channel relief insole aims to alleviate heel and arch pain for as many people as possible, as quickly as possible, and at an affordable cost. The O.C. Channel relief insole is designed to bring relief to those suffering from chronic pain. Moreover, the orthosis delivers results with an efficacy rate of 75% or higher. Its proven success over more than 30 years speaks for itself.

THE PATENTED TECHNOLOGY RECOGNIZED by DOCTORS AND A 2024 WINNER BY ISPO MUNICH

In 2024, the International Sports and Performance Organization (ISPO) recognized a revolutionary solution to this problem: the OC Channel insole. This innovative technology is the first of its kind to directly address the root cause of plantar fasciitis and heel spurs. The patented design features a concave channel that reduces tension on the plantar fascia by up to 90%, redistributes pressure across the foot, and biomechanically stabilizes the FHL tendon. It was praised by the judges for its potential to transform the lives of hundreds of millions of people.

This insole, hailed as a groundbreaking advancement, is not only backed by science but has also received endorsements from podiatrists, NHL physiotherapists, and professional athletes from the PGA TOUR and NHL who have witnessed its transformative effects firsthand.
