Regular use of Barefoot Science promotes a strong and stable arch system, even for those who have a history of flat feet. As long as footwear imposes functional restrictions, Barefoot Science is your best defense against instability and overall poor foot health. Barefoot Science is not an instant fix but works gradually and is analogous to an exercise program that progressively introduces the sensory stimulus to the feet that is required for natural healthy foot function, despite the unhealthy restrictions imposed by enclosed footwear. Please note: Barefoot Science does not treat already damaged tissue (scar tissue or fibrosis) caused by historical degenerative stresses resulting from poor foot mechanics and function. If required, the damaged tissues can easily be treated by a medical professional using complementary conventi
