SALT LAKE CITY, UT - May 13, 2005 - New research that quantifies the
relationship between foot function and human biomechanics has
unraveled the age long question of human posture. Thousands of
researchers and medical practitioners have reported a correlation
between how we walk and stand and the curvatures of our spine. This
postural relationship has been linked to many symptoms and conditions,
treated currently and for more than two hundred years by physicians
and therapists.
Brent A. Jarrett, DPM, primary researcher and president of Theta-
Orthotics, has defined a one to one relationship between angular
control of the human foot and our ability to stand straight during
weight bearing activity. These measurements define the forces that
rotate the lower extremity, stabilize the pelvis, and ultimately
create the alignment of our spinal structures.
Physicians and patients have experienced and reported the benefits of
postural improvement associated with the use of many different foot
control devices. Medical literature has generally described how
control of both forefoot and rearfoot function can be used to treat
many chronic conditions of the muscles, tendons, and joints altered by
walking activity. Never before has anyone quantified accurately this
important relationship.
Until now application of these principles has been confined to the
realm of art, as the mathematical documentation necessary to permit
study as a science, has not been available. Basic research that has
defined these angular measurements began over 20 years ago and has
since been studied clinically by Dr. Jarrett and his colleagues.
Studies now document the specific correction levels that can be used
to optimally stabilize and restore posture at levels previously
believed impossible.
Patients report immediate changes in forces on their posture and are
amazed at the benefits as they progressively increase correction to
levels way beyond traditional application. Dr. Jarrett personally
describes these postural benefits, with angular corrections more than
twice those used by any other physicians, as "unbelievable."
Dr. Jarrett added, "These understandings will completely change our
approach to the treatment of many chronic medical conditions." He
suggests that the relationship between posture and health is one that
has never been fully understood and is of the utmost importance.
