Dr. Tom's Product Recommendations
Dr. Biernacki’s Recommended Products
HOKA Bondi 8 Maximum Cushion Shoe
⭐ Highly Rated
Maximum cushion shoe for plantar fasciitis and general foot pain — HOKA Bondi provides industry-leading shock absorption.
Dr. Tom says: “HOKA Bondi 8 is one of my most-recommended footwear changes for patients with plantar fasciitis and general foot pain. The maximum cushion platform dramatically reduces impact loading on the heel and forefoot. Many patients see significant symptom reduction from footwear change alone.”
