“Tripping” is the largest cause of falls while walking.
The period when the foot is off the ground is called swing phase. During the mid-swing phase, the distance between the toe and the ground becomes very low, known as minimum foot clearance (MFC). ISEAL insole increases MFC by assisting ankle motion (i.e. dorsiflexion) and reduces the risk of tripping falls.
Knee adduction moment causes osteoarthritis for Varus knee and ISEAL insole reduces knee adduction moment.
Varus knee tends to be a cause of osteoarthritis at the medial (inner) compartment of the knee. This is often due to the ground reaction force generating moment that rotates the shank bone externally (laterally). ISEAL insole realigns the shank bone to reduce moment arm and associated knee adduction moment, the cause of osteoarthritis.
ISEAL insole improves walking efficiency.
Energy efficiency can be calculated based on position and speed of body centre of mass. Efficient loading is possible by utilising foot contact impact to progress forward while reducing the amount of impact transferred to the lower limb joints. ISEAL insole enhances energy efficiency by supporting the certain ankle motions and applying different sole-materials.
ISEAL insole controls foot centre of pressure to prevent the ankle from twisting.
For prevention of ankle sprain, ISEAL insole is designed to regulate excessive lateral centre of pressure movement.
