Insole testing (biomechanics and pain rating)

Insole for 6 weeks. 10 types of insoles. Three for plantar fasciitis, one for diabetes, one for knee pain, one for back pain, and four for general lower limb support. - The type of insole will be selected based on the condition/ medical comorbidities (most conditions have only one insole option). For the conditions where there are more than one option, the participant gets to try on all options and self-select based on their rating of reducing pain and improving comfort (as they would do in a shop to make it relevant to the real life situation). The baseline assessments are then conducted in that insole of choice. - Specific laboratory shoes will be used for the biomechanics and pressure analysis, plus the participants own shoes, for the pre and post testing. Only the participants shoes will be used for the 6 week intervention. - The duration/frequency of insole wearing will be whenever participants wear shoes with the hours worn being recorded. - The intervention will be administered by the research staff – i.e. podiatrists or biomechanists. - The strategy used to monitor adherence to the intervention is a participant daily record sheet (hours insoles worn and VAS pain rating) with weekly reporting via RedCap.
