The Immediate Effects of Vibrotexture Shoe Insoles on Quiet Standing Balance and Lower Limb Muscle Activity in Healthy Young Adults [PDF]
Journal of Foot and Ankle ResearchIntroduction Shoe insoles that provide a single source of plantar sensory stimulus, such as texture or vibration, can improve measures of standing balance. Vibrotexture insoles, designed to provide multiple sources of sensory stimuli, may provide greater

Biomechanical Analysis of the FlatFoot with Different 3D-Printed Insoles on the Lower Extremities
Bioengineering, 2022 Insoles play an important role in the conservative treatment of functional flat foot. The features of 3D-printed insoles are high customizability, low cost, and rapid prototyping. However, different designed insoles tend to have different effects.

Immediate effect of textured insoles on the balance in patients with diabetic neuropathy
Journal of Diabetes Investigation, 2023 Aims/Introduction Neuropathy is a common complication of diabetes that reduces balance by disrupting vision, and the sensory and vestibular systems. This is important in older adults who are more at risk of falling.
