Alznner’s design encourages the foot to operate in a biomechanically efficient position. When the foot is not in a good biomechanical position the muscles of the feet, legs, and back must compensate for the poor positioning and the resulting inefficiency frequently causes foot, leg, and back pain as well as fatigue.
The Alznner orthotic provides support for the inner and outer longitudinal arches, the transverse arch, as well as the metatarsal arch which is often overlooked in many supports. Its built-in metatarsal support moves the center of gravity over the arch improving balance, stability, and muscle efficiency, which decreases pain up the kinetic chain from foot to back and even jaw muscles, significantly reducing fatigue.
