How Posture Control InsolesT work

In a nutshell, Posture Control InsolesT cause your muscles to activate the foot like you are when you try to pick up a towel from the floor with your foot.  When you do that exercise, you will notice that your arch rises and your ankle straightens.

Technically, Posture Control InsolesT work through proprioception. 

What is PROPRIOCEPTION?
Proprioception is our sense of position, movement and force.  Proprioceptive sensors are located in the muscles, joints and underneath the feet.  An example of a proprioceptive stimulus and response would be someone bumping into you, or standing on a bus as it starts moving.  Instantaneously your muscles respond to prevent a fall. 

The Posture Control InsolesT apply a proprioceptive stimulus underneath the first metatarsal and big toe.  This stimulus activates the deep calf muscles that control the foot and ankle causing the arch to rise, ankle to straighten and the leg to rotate externally.   This slight rotation in turn impacts the position of the pelvis, the upper body and center of gravity.  Your weight will be shifted slightly to the back. 

Proprioception is not a directly measurable quantity.  Because we observe more postural correction than the small dimensions of the insole would otherwise provide if they were simply functioning as passive supports, we are reasonably certain proprioception is the underlying mechanism that makes Posture Control InsolesT work.
