One of the human body's most complex tasks is to keep itself upright and balanced when walking and standing. A multitude of supporting muscles throughout the whole body is responsible for this - the body's supporting muscle system.
Conventional shoes support and lead the foot, stabilising the body in an unnatural way. This means that these important muscles lose their function. Like any other inactive muscle, they atrophy, leading to many of the health conditions of modern civilisation, for instance joint and back pain.
It is relatively easy to counteract this effect: the body must be stimulated to balance itself. This is exactly what physiological footwear does, by inducing a natural instability in the body - which must constantly be compensated by the body's supporting muscle system.
With the special sole construction the MBT creates a natural, soft surface. The natural instability underneath the feet ensures that neglected muscle groups automatically make the balancing movements that nature intended.
These activated muscles relieve the pressure on joints and discs while walking, and make a passive gait, such as in conventional shoes, impossible. Every step taken with MBT physiological footwear acts like a tiny fitness exercise. Even standing has a training effect on muscles, relieves joint strain and stabilises the whole musculo-skeletal system.
