Abstract:

Shoe insoles having convex protuberances extending from the base of the insoles for providing a rhythmic pressure or massaging action on the soles of the feet during walking. The base is a resilient or spongy material while the protuberances are somewhat more firm so that at the wearer of the insoles walks the protuberances sink into the base on the downstep and extend proudly from the base on the lifting portion of the walking gait. The protuberances have geometric forms and are disposed on the base so as to massage certain zones of the soles of the wearer's feet to simulate an acu-pressure massage and walking barefoot on uneven or rough terrain.
