This research was part of a series of discoveries that ultimately led to a therapy that, in many cases, permanently eliminates chronic musculoskeletal pain without the use of drugs or surgery.  This therapy is called Rothbart Proprioceptive Therapy, in which I use a series of tests, proprietary computer analyses, custom designed Rothbart Proprioceptive Insoles and ongoing monitoring to address all of the changes in the patients condition and necessary changes in prescriptions, until the chronic muscle and/or joint pain is eliminated.

Here is an excerpt from my webpage, "Standard orthosis vs Rothbarts Proprioceptive Insoles" published on my research website, that ultimately led to the development of Rothbart Proprioceptive Therapy:

“Rothbarts Proprioceptive Insoles are used to reverse the postural distortions initiated by the Primus Metatarsus Supinatus foot. This is accomplished by applying a tactile stimulation underneath the first metatarsal and hallux -commonly referred to as the medial column of the foot.

Supportive type orthoses do not provide the appropriate stimulation to the bottom of the foot.”
