2088243 9221258 PCTABS00017 A cushion to provide tripodal support at the three gait points (11, 12, 13) of the human foot to alleviate pedal dysfunction and associated leg discomfort resulting from pregnancy, obesity, spinal deformity and the like. The cushion comprises support cushions positioned at points corresponding to the locations of the posterior calcaneus (19), the calcaneal-cuboid region (20) and the base of the first metatarsal bone (21) of a human foot. The support cushions are made of polymeric foam having a density greater than that of a surrounding insole (14) and are positioned to form an obtuse triangle of support that directs the forces generated by walking across the foot so as to provide a near functionally perfect gait. The cushions may be separately adhered to the sock lining within a shoe or formed as part of an insole (14) for temporary or permanent placement in incorporation as part of a shoe construction.
