What To Expect From Your Biopods Footwear
Start seeing results in 1-8 weeks.
Your body may respond to the Biopods footwear differently depending on your starting foot mobility (how easily you can raise your toes):
If you can easily raise your toes
If you can easily raise your toes, your feet will adapt quickly to Biopods footwear. The arch stimulus created by the Biopods insoles in the shoes may feel a little strange under your feet initially, however, that stimulus should become virtually unnoticeable within a short period of time. You may experience transitory aches or pains anywhere in your feet, legs, hips or back as alignment and function improves.
Any pain that persists would be caused by either pre-existing fibrotic/scar tissue. In this instance, have your healthcare professional apply soft tissue mobilization therapies.
If you can only raise your toes a little bit
If you can only raise your toes a little bit, your feet will adapt more slowly to Biopods footwear. Limited toe movement is usually caused by a combination of poor muscle function and flexibility, both of which will improve with consistent Biopods footwear use. The Biopods insole's arch area stimulus may feel a little strange under your feet initially, however, that stimulus should become virtually unnoticeable as your foot mobility improves. You may experience transitory aches or pain anywhere in your feet, legs, hips or back as alignment and function improves.
Any pain that persists would be caused by either pre-existing fibrotic/scar tissue or by your specific shoes’ design characteristics. In this instance, have your healthcare professional employ soft tissue mobilization therapies.
If you can can’t raise your toes at all
If you can can’t raise your toes at all, it is usually because of extremely poor muscle function and poor flexibility or actual joint fusion caused by surgery or arthritis. In these instances, the arch stimulus may be uncomfortable or intolerable.
If your limited toe movement is caused by poor muscle function and poor flexibility, it may be necessary to have your healthcare professional employ soft tissue mobilization therapies prior to using Biopods Footwear.
If your limited toe movement is caused by irreversible joint fusion as a result of arthritis, Biopods footwear may not suitable for you. The only way to know for sure is to try them.
Initially, the Biopods footwear's insole's arch stimulus may feel somewhat strange under your feet but should become virtually unnoticeable as your foot mobility improves. You may experience transitory aches or pain anywhere in your feet, legs, hips, or back as alignment and function improves.
Any persistent pain would most likely be caused by pre-existing fibrotic/scar tissue. If the pain only occurs when using Biopods footwear, stop using the footwear.
