Abstract

An insole device configured to fit the profile of the human foot to promote proprioceptive stimulation of the Golgi tendon organ. The midfoot section of the insole device has an asymmetric domed structure that is presented to the plantar aspect of the foot at a location found to be the anatomical apex of the foot's arch system. The asymmetric domed structure displays physical properties to catalyst muscle group balancing by using the body's proprioceptive feedback mechanisms. The asymmetric domed structure displays physical properties such that it does not provide functional bracing or support to the plantar aspect of the foot. The net result will be more structurally sound foot capable of more energy efficient and less injury inducing use. The plantar aspect of the insole or midsole device is characterized by a dominant cavity having the ability to receive and interchange the biofeedback catalyst and the many forms therefore, as well as being characterized by provisions to ensure proper and permanent placement of the catalyst.
