MBTs are Supported by independent research.

1. *During standing, MBTs act as a mechanical muscle training device.

Back To Work have traded for over twenty years

2. *MBTs act as a mechanical training device for the muscles crossing the ankle joint.

3. *MBTs reduce mechanically the forces at the knee and hip joint. This result is typically associated with a reduction of joint pain.

4. *MBTs strengthen the small muscles with small levers with respect to the rotational axes. This would reduce the joint loading, which explains the results of less pain and discomfort when using this training device.
 

5. *MBTs, when applied as described in the user’s instructions, is a device for mechano-therapy.

We provide user training included in the purchase price and recommend you follow the CARE GUIDE on how to clean your MBT shoes & properly care for MBT shoes

Ordinary shoes

With MBTs

 The mechano-therapy with the MBT device influences the patient during standing and walking.   During standing, the MBT device increases the muscle activity, therefore increasing the muscle forces and producing a training effect. During walking, the MBT device reduces the joint loading, therefore reducing the joint pain.  The MBT device is, therefore, an effective device for mechano-therapy.

*Extracts from research performed at the Human Performance Laboratory, University of Calgary, Canada, by Benno M. Nigg Dr.sc.nat., Professor of Biomechanics, June 30th, 2004

Scientific studies in human performance can transfer actual human movement into computerized skeleton models.
