FootID™ Technology
Built using metrics that work for your condition, powered by FootID™ Technology.
-
Proximal met dome offloads the primary pain site
The dome sits just behind the 2nd–4th metatarsal heads, redistributing peak plantar pressure before it concentrates — the same approach used in $400–$800 clinical lab orthotics.
-
Semi-rigid arch platform limits forefoot splay
Forefoot splay during push-off is the mechanical amplifier of metatarsal head load. The arch platform limits this spread, reducing the pressure spike that causes flare-ups.
-
Works in your existing shoes
Designed to replace the removable insole in most athletic, dress, and casual footwear — no special shoes required. Fits in 3 minutes.
-
Validated by licensed Pedorthists
Every design decision is reviewed by the GoMFO® medical team — the same clinicians who prescribe custom orthotics in their private practices.
Why MetaBalance™ works when other insoles don't.
-
01
Metatarsal-Specific Geometry
Engineered for metatarsalgia specifically — not a cushioned insole adapted to cover forefoot pain as an afterthought.
-
02
Proximal Met Dome Placement
The dome sits just behind the 2nd–4th metatarsal heads — offloading peak pressure before it concentrates. Same placement used in $400–$800 lab orthotics.
-
03
Progressive Arch Support
A graduated medial ramp redistributes load across the full plantar surface — no sudden pressure spikes that worsen micro-tears.
-
04
Metatarsal Dome
Repositions the metatarsal heads to restore the transverse arch, reducing the forefoot overload that drives metatarsalgia.
Getting Started
Fits in 3 minutes. Works for months.
MetaBalance™ is designed to replace the removable factory insole in most shoes. Here's exactly how to fit them.
Remove your existing insole
Peel out the factory insole from your shoe. Most shoes have a removable insole that lifts out easily from the heel end.
Place MetaBalance™ inside
Slide the orthotic in with the heel cup seated at the back. The met dome should sit just behind the ball of your foot.
Trim to fit if needed
If the orthotic is slightly long, use sharp scissors to trim along the marked cut line on the forefoot. Cut in small increments.
Break in gradually
Wear for 2–3 hours on day one, increasing daily. Full-day wear is typically comfortable by day 5–7 as your foot adapts.

GoMFO® medical review
A licensed podiatrist reviews your FootID® metrics and confirms the correct orthotic configuration for your condition before anything is built. If something looks off, we reach out first.
