Cell phones, billboards, TV ads, fit bits. Now, more so than every before, our nervous system is continuously being over-stimulated with information. This over-stimulation of information actually has the opposite effect on the nervous system, leading to a shut down or "tuning out" of the external noise which we experience on a daily basis.


However when it comes to dynamic movement such as walking, running, jumping we actually need our nervous system to be "tuned in" to effectively load impact forces, stabilize and control shifts in COG.

The Essential Noise of Human Movement


In the case of human movement the "noise" that enters the nervous system would be proprioceptive information such as vibration, joint capsule stretch, texture, tension etc. This proprioceptive noise is essential for proper activation of muscle sequences and time to stabilization for efficient loading and unloading of impact forces.

With the foot as the only contact point between the body and the ground - much of this "noise" enters our nervous system through the feet. If this foot "noise" is tuned out or unable to be sensed by the nervous system inaccurate movement patterns and delayed time to stabilization (i.e. injury) is the result.


One of the biggest causes or reasons for the inability to sense the essential noise of human movement is footwear. Thick, cushioned, supportive footwear with smooth insoles completely "tunes out" the foot during dynamic movement.
