After some testing, I now feel these shoes are more valuable than I first had somewhat harshly stated. I have a patient with very painful Hallux rigidus. She is trying desperately to avoid surgical fusion of her first MTPJ. I recommended she get the MBT shoes. Although the rocker effect was helpful in decreasing Dorsiflexion at her Hallux, there was still pain. however, I still had to make the rocker more rigid with a Carboplast Spring Lite Plate. The MBT shoes were beneficial to this patient and I will recommend them again. Spencer B Weisbond, C.Ped.
