Should I get insoles or custom orthotics for my shin splints?
Asked 4 years ago
Orthotics seem significantly more expensive and I don't want to have to buy them if I could get the same benefit for this specific condition from something cheaper.

There are several leading brand insoles on the market that are designed specifically for people suffering with shin splints. Insoles that offer the most support are recommended. They work by keeping your feet working in correct alignment, taking unnecessary pressure off of the lower leg and ankles. You should definitely explore this avenue first.
