Prof Rothbart Links the Development of Chronic Pain to the Feet (Jour Amer Podiatr Med Assoc 06/08)

May 31, 2008 – In a monumental study involving 22 children, Professor Rothbart statistically links a congenital foot structure to the development of poor posture, which in turn, leads to chronic musculoskeletal pain in the adult.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release) - Jun 02, 2008 -
Presently, the United States is entrenched in a silent epidemic of pain which, according to the National Center for Health Statistics, disables more Americans annually that than all those suffering from diabetes, heart disease, stroke and cancer combined.1  Professor Rothbart links this epidemic of pain to a foot structure (Primus Metatarsus Supinatus) that he discovered in 2002.2  This foot structure causes the foot to twist (pronate) when you stand or walk.   It is this foot twist that is linked to the development of chronic muscle and joint pain.  

In his forthcoming book, Forever Free From Chronic Pain, Professor Rothbart discusses the importance of this direct link between foot twist and the development of chronic pain.  In patients born with the Primus Metatarsus Supinatus foot structure, Professor Rothbart eliminates chronic pain by eliminating foot twist.  He terms this non surgical, non drug therapy, Proprioceptive Therapy.

International experts on chronic pain have commented on Professor Rothbart’s research and clinical approach in eliminating chronic pain:
