Default not making contact with the floor

I think I've posted before about being fitted for inserts to brace my feet. I received them today and they were checked and cut down to fit my shoes. They increase the feeling of not making contact with the floor. They are molded to my foot then a heel is attached that is flat. The primary reason is to stabalize my heel and ankle which is deteriorating due to the osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis and neuropathy. I only have one brand of shoes that fit the things. They have a schedule of wearing them in order to get all the muscles in the hip, back and leg area accustomed to them.

The doctor said this is critical to the health of my feet. Has anyone else had this done? And did it help the pain in your hip, back and leg areas?
