I have very high arches and I've suffered from this for at least fifteen years. Orthotics have made my life worth living again. I've had numerous pairs made custom, some have been great, some brutally torturous. The original fiberglass molded ones still perform very well.

My podiatrist also recommended getting 3-4 pairs of well fitting shoes and rotate wearing them. I never wear the same pair of (dress) shoes two days in a row. Besides having an almost Imelda Marcos-like shoe collection, my feet have been much more comfortable over the years.
