achilles tendinitis and heel lifts

I have achilles tendonitis and I have heard that heel lifts might help. I do however, have orthotics, so is it a good idea to wear heel lifts with orthotics or do orthotics serve the same purpose as heel lifts on there own?

    I probably depends on the orthotic. If there is a rearfoot post, then it might be enough, but there are times I will add a temporary heel lift to an orthotic to see if it helps.
