Bij een enkel artrodese wordt het scheenbeen, sprongbeen en vaak ook een deel van het kuitbeen vast gezet. MBT schoenen zijn geschikt bij elke vorm van artrose. Door de zachte hak wordt de harde ondergrond opgevangen waardoor het de druk en belasting op de gewrichten opvangt en vermindert. Daarnaast zorgt de halfronde MBT zool voor een actieve houding en versterking van de spieren rond de gewrichten. Ondertussen is een groot deel van ons klantenbestand ook MBT gebruiker geworden door bestaande enkel klachten. Daarnaast zijn er veel MBT gebruikers die specifiek een enkel artrodese hebben die goede ervaring hebben met lopen op MBT schoeisel. Doordat de enkel vast staat is de voet afwikkelen niet meer mogelijk. De MBT schoenen zorgen voor het ontlasten van de enkel door de demping en door de ronde zool. Tijdens het staan op MBT schoenen wordt de middenvoet optimaal ondersteund, de enkel/hak en voorvoet worden ontlast. De MBT schoenen zijn stijf waardoor dit na de zachte hiellanding een optimale

The physiotherapist is specialised in movement, and strives to improve movement as much as possible. MBT shoes will undoubtedly contribute to this process. There is a striking similarity between physiotherapy and wearing MBT shoes. For instance, physiotherapy offers exercises on a so-called balance board, where you are constantly forced to find stability. The correcting factors are the positive effects on your muscles. Muscle power is enhanced, and you improve your posture to create balance. These are the exercises which your physiotherapist will often give you as homework, to practise.

MBT shoes are ideally suited to be your daily physio training. On MBT, you are constantly working on improving your posture, as well as activating your muscles or muscle power.

MBT index - Activate

The MBT designs from the Activate Series are ideal for a first introduction to the shoes of MBT. If you want to get rid of your ordinary shoes and you want to find out what it means to wear MBT shoes, the shoes from the Activate series are perfect for you. The benefit of the Activate shoes is that these shoes make it easier to stand still. The slope of the sole is a little less defined than MBT shoes from different series, which helps you to find your balance. At the same time, the rounded sole still improves the unrolling of the foot during walking. The MBT Sensor’s shock absorbing quality is the same in any MBT shoe, regardless of the MBT index. Do you walk less than you stand still, and you still want the comfort that MBT has to offer because you have a standing profession, for instance behind the counter or in at a production line in a factory, then the MBT index Activate will meet your requirements.

Heel spur is often the result of overpressure, causing an infection in this fascia (the place on the bone where the tendon is attached). When heel spur occurs, a sharp pain spreads under the heel. Because the heel is one of the pressure points during walking on normal shoes, pain is experienced with every step you take. MBT’s solution is a shoe which moves the pressure from the heel and forefoot to the middle of the foot, because in MBT shoes, the foot takes its natural hollowed shape, thus relieving the heel.

MBT shoes are perfect for when you want to improve your posture or your skills in various sports. MBT is the perfect shoe to wear before or after the work-out. MBT shoes simulate an instable, soft surface, which you can compare to sand or grass. The shape which a soft surface adopts under pressure of a foot has been the blueprint for the shape of an MBT shoe. This makes that every step you take in MBT shoes feel like walking on soft sand. Moreover, a soft surface is unstable, which is also the experience which an MBT shoe offers. Muscles respond to this instability by making the body seek its balance again. The body is again in perfect balance when the joints and vertebrae align when they are at ease. Through instability, MBT shoes stimulate the body to stand straight, relieving the less flexible bones and joints and let the flexible muscles do the work. Because each muscle, regardless of size, is activated to create a straight and healthy posture, walking in MBT shoes is like a work-out.

Hi, a while ago I've bought two pairs of MBT running shoes Zee16, one blue for Belgium and one "orange" for the Netherlands. I've promised to keep you informed on how I experience your products. I stopped running around 4 to 5 years ago due to recurring knee problems, that eventually prevented me from jogging. Even light jogging was to much. I finally started running again with my new MBT running shoes and it's going very well. So far I have been running every week (once or twice a week), I started with running 5 km and slowly gradually increasing it to 11 km run. At the end my joints were soar but not to the extend of having me stranded. What can I say, I'm very pleased with your product, and I am grateful that MBT have released these shoes. They've made me feel alive again!

Walking on hard surfaces is unhealthy for the human body. We are used to sidewalks being paved and streets being covered in asphalt, but did you know that the human body is not meant to walk on these surfaces? The discomforts which we suffer daily during walking or even standing still are caused by the hardened surfaces we walk on. Every landing of the heel and the forefoot creates a shockwave that travels through to the skeleton and wears down cartilage and vertebrae. Even when you are standing still, the forefoot and the heel have to endure the pressure of the body caused by gravity. Standing and walking on a softer surface is much less painful. Because it is difficult to replace pavements and streets with sand and grass, MBT offers a solution. By every step, the shock of the impact is softened by a soft cushion in the heel – the sensor. Subsequently, the half-round shape of the shoe stimulates a natural unrolling of your foot. Additionally, the MBT shoes reduce bodily discomfort of irritating

Because of the rounded shape of an MBT shoe, you are forced to create a smooth unrolling of the foot from heel to toe. The Sensor, absorbs the shock upon impact with the surface, protecting the heel. In this way, the first touchdown on the hard surface is softened instantly. While a second point of impact with the hard surface occurs in normal shoes, MBT’s rounded shape ensures a fluent motion from heel to forefoot. MBT does not only make walking more comfortable, but it also offers a healthy solution by training the body to walk naturally. Walking on a hard surface has never been so comfortable and healthy before!

Good, sturdy shoes are necessary in order to walk a long way. And what is greater than being able to walk comfortable, almost automatically? Walking in MBT shoes in walking in a natural manner. The heel Sensor is a shock-absorbing material which ensures that every step is soft a gentle. The unrolling of the foot is made easier by the rounded sole construction so that you do not
