Product Overview:
- The Natural Balance Pad aids in the biomechanics of the foot by; supporting the frog buttress, stimulating proprioceptors, dissipating energy, promoting a heel-first landing, aligning the distal phalanges, improving circulation and promoting heel expansion.
- The durable, semi-transparent Urethane material has been formulated to provide the optimal equalibrium between flex and rigidity.
- There is a "crystal clear" window just ahead of the frog piece so that the shoe/pad unit can be more accurately place on the foot relative to the solar structures.
- There are specially located cutouts or voids in the frog piece that replicate the central sulcus and (less dense) midsection of the frog.
- These features allow the pad to flex and transfer support in a way that mimics the natural biomechanical function of the frog.
- The heel portion of the frog piece is relieved so that the heels of the shoe can be brought in for cases of contracted heels.
- The wall of the frog piece in the heel region is upright so that dirt can pack between the frog piece and the shoe to offer full caudal support.
- At the same time, as the you move forward on the frog piece, there is a gradual taper to allow the dirt to clean in the anterior part of the foot.
- The Natural Balance Pad can be used with or without Impression Material, depending on the quality of the frog and required application.
