High heels are now widely used, both among workers and students. The use of high
heels gives a lot of influence to the body, one of which is the energy cost when walking using
high heels. Purpose: Prove the effect of using insert silicone heel cup on high heels users who
have different foot shape to energy cost when using high heels Methods: Experimental research
within subject design. With one group treated in the form of insert silicone heel cup and not
treated. There were 8 female participants who were willing to participate in this study and had
already fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria chosen by purposive sampling. Participants
aged 18-30 years use high heels ≥ 2 cm. Each participant will do 2 tests, walking on the Treadmill
with and without the Insert Silicone Heel Cup. Results: the results of this study indicate that
there is an influence on energy cost on users of high heels who have different foot shapes
with a p-value of 0.012. While the p-value in the comparison before and after using
insert silicone heel cup on energy cost had no significant difference (p = 0.813). There is
no significant difference in energy cost on walking speed when using a insert silicone
heel cup (p = 1,000). Conclusion: there is an effect on the use of insert silicone heel cup
on the energy cost of high heels users with different foot shapes.
