Clinical Study Review: Baylor Study Demonstrates that OrthoFeet Footwear Design Reduces Foot Pain
Date: Wednesday, December 13, 2023
Time: 2 – 3pm EST
Description:
Join Dr. Josh White, DPM as he reviews a newly completed clinical study on OrthoFeet footwear from Baylor University. Overview: Aging leads to physiological, biomechanical and functional decline in the foot causing pathologies and complications such as osteoporosis, plantar fat pad atrophy and stiffness, excessive foot pronation, hallux valgus and metatarsalgia; all of which increase disability and foot pain. The aim of this randomized control trial was to investigate the effectiveness of OrthoFeet footwear on reducing foot pain and disability after 6-weeks of activities of daily living. We hypothesized that older adults wearing shoes with novel design would show reduction in foot pain and disability compared to age-matched adults wearing their own shoes. Join us and learn about the findings from this clinical study.
