Therapists - why they recommend Posture Control Insoles®

Orthopedic and podiatric doctors as well as old school chiropractors are primarily focused on structure - your bones, joints, tendons and ligaments. Therapists focus on muscles, tendons, fascia and movement. Together they all play a vital role in helping you maintain a healthy body. Therapists, and increasingly, chiropractors are performing posture assessments of their patients recognizing the importance a balanced, erect posture and a stable foundation is to good health.

Dr. Janet Travell MD • • • • • • • • • •

Every field has its keystone teacher and author. The First Lady of chronic pain, Dr. Janet Travell (1901-1997) was the White House physician to presidents John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson. Dr. Travell in cooperation with Dr. David G. Simons authored the defining works on myofascial pain, defining the function, behavior and pain potential of every muscle in the body.
She never had a chance to try a pair of Posture Control Insoles®. In 1995, at the age of 94, when she met Dr. Brian Rothbart, she was dependent on a wheel chair, but that did not dampen her enthusiasm for his work and what it meant for people who suffer from muscle and joint pain. She credited him with discovering the third dimension of the Morton's Foot Structure - the elevated first metatarsal.

President John F. Kennedy
While still the Senator from Massachusetts, John F. Kennedy was so disabled with back and myofascial pain he frequently used crutches. His health could have prevented him from becoming president had it not been for the help of Dr. Janet Travell. His health was restored, enabling him to become the Presidential nominee and run a taxing national campaign. Dr. Travell subsequently became his White House physician and stayed on through Lyndon B. Johnson's term.

Dr. Travell changed the management of patients suffering from chronic myofascial pain.
Letter from Dr. Travell

Dimitrios Kostopoulos PT, PhD

My philosophy as a health care provider, operating 8 physical therapy clinics, is that there is no better way to learn and internalize new methods and technologies than by teaching them. I discovered Posture Control Insoles® at a conference on chronic pain in Orlando Florida over 3 years ago. Being familiar with the postural impact of Morton's Foot Structure (Travell), I found the concept very intriguing. It didn't take me long after being fitted with a pair to realize that my foot foundation had changed and that my posture was improving.

We provided Posture Control Insoles® to our patients with great success, and true to my philosophy, I have incorporated teaching the benefits of this product in my seminars.

This is an excellent tool for managing posture. It is simple and inexpensive to use.

Sincerely,
Dr. Dimitrios Kostopoulos, PT

Mary Bond, Rolfing® Structural Integration Practitioner

An engineering maxim concisely states why our feet are so important: "As goes the foundation, so goes the building." Unlike a building, though, our bodies move. Our body's foundation must adapt to the uneven surfaces beneath our feet as well as to the motion of the rest of our body above. On an average day our feet absorb up to three million pounds of pressure. When our feet fail to support us properly, our whole body suffers. Many therapists consider foot imbalances to be a major cause of low back pain and the source of problems as far away as shoulders, neck and jaw.

When I teach workshops, I always notice how poor posture and a faulty foot foundation interrupts smooth motion. The out-of- balance body becomes awkward and clumsy. I don't hesitate to recommend Posture Control Insoles® - in fact I offer a reference to Posture Dynamics in my new book. These tactile insoles have a profound impact on improving gait and posture. For $50 I can think of few investments of better value.

Craig Tedder, PT, MBA

Posture is something I look at as part of the overall puzzle when I put together a treatment plan. Recovery will be slower if the patient's posture is off, and we can often trace the poor posture back to lower extremity function - particularly the feet. Before I was introduced to Posture Control Insoles®, there was really nothing I could do for some of my patients who had foot imbalances that clearly impacted their posture and stability. In the worst cases I had to rely on sending the patients out for custom orthotics. Over time, though, I have come to think of custom orthotics as fairly unpredictable products. While they sometimes provided help, in most cases they were not terribly effective, and often helped only temporarily.

With Posture Control Insoles®, I can quickly and inexpensively create a custom fit for a patient, follow and monitor them and make quick changes if necessary.

We have switched several patients from arch supports to tactile stimulation using the Posture Control Insoles® and helped them fully recover.

Why do they work so well? Posture Control Insoles® are based on a structural and dynamic model that - based on observation - makes very good sense. The company is pursuing more quantitative research, which I expect will firmly testify to the positive effects we observe on a daily basis using PCIs.

Sincerely,
