Orthotics vs Non-Orthotics

TRADITIONAL ORTHOTICS VS. OUR NON-ORTHOTICS

The medical definition of Orthotics:  "Orthotics is a branch of mechanical and medical science that deals with the support and bracing of weak or ineffective joints or muscles (Webster's dictionary).

What are "Foot Orthotics"?   Webster's dictionary definition: "A support, brace, or splint used to support, align, prevent, or correct for the dysfunction or function of movable parts of the foot."

Shoe inserts are orthotics that are intended to correct an abnormal or irregular walking pattern, by altering slightly the angles at which the foot strikes a walking or running surface.

Wearing Traditional Orthotics is Like Wearing a CastWearing orthotics for extended periods is like wearing a cast on the bottoms of your feet. Designed to meet the needs of weak, dysfunctional feet, orthotics prevent your muscles from activating properly.

If you have ever worn custom orthotics or you are seeking a solution for improving foot health, improving running performance, recovering from running related injuries, we recommend Barefoot Science "Non-Othotic" Insoles.

 We Get Results!

 Based upon our research of over 400 men, women, and     youths ages 7 to 75, we found it astonishing that over 99%   of those assessed have never performed exercises to   strengthen their feet - contributing to weak, flat feet, and   collapsing arches.  This is leading cause for needing   traditional orthotics and corrective shoes.
