Question:
I lost the removable center pad. Can I buy just the removable pad and not the entire heel cushion?
Answer:
The small removable gel pad is not sold separately. I think the Gel Heel Pad would be just as comfortable and useful without the small pad. Personal preference on your part.
I need a heel lift to compensate for loss of length in my right leg due to an operation.
For leg length discrepency, we recommend our heel lifts that are made of firm cork or rubber, as they aren't as malleable as these gel heel pads.
I would like to try as part of treatment for Sever's disease. However, I may need to trim pad to fit ballet slipper. Can these be trimmed to fit?
They are trimmable since the enitre heel pad is made of gel. Just remember that they cannot be returned once they've bee modified.
