I have ones called "heel halo", they have a hole in the middle so my heel doesnt touch it full on. I have seen ones that say they are specifically for the PF but am not sure what would work best. Just looking for some help.

The plantar fascia supports the inside arch of your foot. If you have a pronated (flat) foot type it over stretches and irritates the plantar fascia. You need to lift and support the arch with a insole to relieve the strain and allow the inflammation (where it attaches into your heel bone) to settle. I would also advise getting sports shoes with an anti-pronation device fitted in... find a good sports shoe shop, they should be able to give advice on insoles and shoe types.

Go to a Podiatrist and they will look at your feet, see if they are in or out of alignment and then make you insoles. Remember the feet take the full weight of the body, so I would not go guessing on this one.

It really depends on what is causing it. If there is overpronation you want a different type of support than if there is supination. Your best bet is to go to your drs and ask them.
