KLM’s
System Rx is a uniquely designed, semi rigid, over-the-counter,
orthotic style arch support. The System Rx “Sport Model”
has the same 4mm thick polypropylene plastic shell as the Regular
KLM but is covered with a 1/8 inch thick layer of OrthoLite Footbed
Foam. OrthoLite represents the latest in footbed technology and
the next generation of high performance foams.

OrthoLite
by O2Partners, LLC represents the latest in footbed technology
and the next generation of performance foams. OrthoLite is
an open cell polyurethane base foam. The unique open cell
structure of OrthoLite enables air to travel through and around
the insole creating a cooler environment inside the shoe.
Along with air, the open cell structure inherent to the OrthoLite
foam works to transport moisture away from the foot and then
disperse it evenly throughout the foam. This promotes the
quickest possible drying time inside of a shoe. A patented
biocide is added to all OrthoLite foams to fight against the
presence of fungus, bacteria, and odor. OrthoLite insoles
are completely washable and will not lose their shape or any
of their high performance features after washing. |
What really differentiates
the KLM brand from almost every other over-the-counter orthotic
style arch support is that the System Rx shells are available in
multiple arch heights and multiple widths. This single brand of
orthotic style arch supports can provide corrective support to a
wider range of foot types and foot shapes than any other single
brand can do.

Plastic

System Rx Orthotics have
one of the deepest heel cups of any orthotic style arch support
available. This is an important feature because the deepened (and
rounded) heel cup cradles the heel and adds rear foot support, thus
increasing the arch support’s ability to control over pronation
and support the entire foot (and not just the arch). System Rx Orthotics
truly help the foot to operate in its most optimal manner.

These
arch supports are designed for three different arch
types - Low, Medium & High. |

Additional
Information about System
Rx Orthotic Style Arch Supports
|
Semi-Rigid
Even though System Rx orthotic style arch supports are considered
semi rigid by comparison to truly rigid custom made plastic orthotics
they are still considerably more rigid than most other over the counter
arch supports and orthotics. Most people will not be able to bend
or flex the System Rx arch supports more than a few millimeters using
only their bare hands. The System Rx orthotic style arch supports
are designed to flex but only under the full weight of the body weight.
This is why they work so well. |
Break
In Period
Due to the semi rigid nature of these arch supports some people will
find that they take a little getting used to and may at first feel
a little unusual or even a little uncomfortable. A little cramping
in various muscles of the foot or lower ankle when the arch supports
are new and you have been wearing them for a while, is normal and
should go away in anywhere from a couple days to a couple of weeks.
If this happens just take the arch supports off let the feet rest
and try them again later. The length of time of the break in period
largely depends on how flat the feet are or how much the arch has
fallen. The more the arch has fallen the more the arch support lifts
the bones of the arch and lower ankle, shifting their positions and
limiting their range of motion. In the case of a person with a medium
to high arch that has fallen and is now completely flat the amount
of repositioning of the bones of the foot can be really dramatic so
it can take a little longer for the foot to adjust to the feel of
wearing the arch supports. |
Treating
Plantar Fasciitis (Heel Pain)
The System Rx orthotic style arch supports are extremely effective
at treating Plantar Fasciitis (heel pain). To get the best results
follow these instructions. After a brief break in period and when
it is comfortable to do so, start wearing the arch supports all
the time from the first step out of bed in the morning to the last
step into bed at night. This will keep the arch from being fully
flexed and take the strain of the Plantar Fascia tissue so it can
heal. It is really important to avoid going barefoot. Spending even
limited amounts of time running around the house barefoot can set
back days of healing. It is also important to keep some shoes or
slippers by the bed with the arch supports in them. When you get
up in the morning or during the night, put on the shoes or slippers
with the arch supports in them and avoid going barefoot. Also, if
you are the type that likes to shower right when they get up in
the morning you should first spend about 15 minutes in your shoes
and arch supports before you shower. This allows the Plantar Fascia
tissue to warm up and stretch out slowly and gently with out retearing
it. After several weeks as the symptoms subside you can ease off
the strict regiment of not going barefoot and just wear the arch
supports during the day or generally whenever you’re on your
feet. |
