The difference between Physiological Footwear and Conventional Shoes
‘One of the human body’s most complex tasks is to keep itself upright and balanced when walking and standing. A multitude of supporting muscles throughout the whole body is responsible for this – the body’s supporting muscle system.’
The Origins of MBT?
MBT has been available on the market since 1996. But practical proof of the effectiveness of this technology has been provided for thousands of years by the Masai, a semi-nomadic tribe from East Africa well known for their excellent posture. Joint and back pain are mostly unknown to them, they enjoy stable health and remarkable athletic ability.
How does MBT Work?
The secret behind the effect of MBT physiological footwear is the unique structure of its sole, which is patent worldwide. Its special structure around the core of the technology, the Masai Sensor, The Shank and the PU midsole with pivot creates a natural, soft surface – walking in MBT’s is like walking barefoot on springy moss, loamy soil or a sandy beach.
This creates a natural instability underfoot, which stimulates and exercises the body’s supporting muscle system and thus triggers the positive effect of Masai Barefoot Technology on the entire body.
