MBT Fitness Shoes - For human health
A rocker sole shoe or rocker bottom shoe is usually a shoe which has a thicker-than-normal sole with rounded heel. Such shoes ensure the wearer won't have flat footing across the proximal-distal axis on the foot. The shoes are generically known by a number of names including round bottom shoes, round/ed sole shoes, and toning shoes, but also by various brandnames. Tyrell & Carter identified at the very least six standard variations in the rocker sole shoe and named them: toe-only rocker, rocker bar, mild rocker, heel-to-toe rocker, negative heel rocker and double rocker.
Rocker soles may replace regular soles on any type of footwear. Some rocker bottom shoes are purpose developed to reduce the function or replace the lost function of the joint. As an example, someone which has a hallux rigidus (stiff hallux) may use a rocker bottom shoe to change the flexion lost for the metatarsal joint. Rocker bottom shoes can also be accustomed to atone for the lost range of motion, however caused, at the tibiotalar joint (rearfoot). In these instances, the wearer maintains solid and stable footing while standing, even so the rock in the heel assists with the propulsive phase of gait, making walking natural and fewer painful to the affected joints. Beneficiaries in this kind of sole modification include people affected by arthritis or other disorder or injury causing pain and/or decrease in motion in foot joints.
The making of most models of rocker sole shoes mean that the wearer's bodyweight is shifted behind the ankle and also the wearer is necessary to do more work than can be needed in flat-soled shoe to discover their centre of gravity and remain balanced.
Within the 15s, a heel-to-toe rocker sole shoe with the sports footwear market was popularized by brands such as MBT.
