Numerous studies conducted throughout the world indicate that footwear actually causes the majority of our foot, leg and back problems. In fact, in countries where shoes are not worn, only three percent of these problems occur compared to shoe-wearing populations. Studies also indicate that children's feet are negatively affected by conventional footwear by the age of six.
The restrictive environment created by conventional footwear design prohibit optimal biomechanical function of the foot, which leads to a weaker structure, associated discomfort, and a host of painful symptoms. Many footwear companies promote designs with various supportive features in an attempt to improve comfort and performance. Unfortunately, this creates a never-ending cycle where the foot becomes progressively weaker and more dependent on the added support. Conventional insoles and shoe inserts work in much the same manner as supportive footwear; they provide additional cushioning, support, or bracing for the foot, contributing to a weaker structure.
 Premium All Purpose Model ($49.95)
The All Purpose Model is a great choice for people who spend a lot of time on their feet. It has been designed for the recreational athlete and for daily wear in business and casual footwear. It suits the needs of the elderly and is a wise choice for children who quickly outgrow their footwear.
