Fun Holidays - Insole Holiday

In Homo erectus, Homo erectus, the ancestor of modern humans, the main load during movement fell on the legsFun Holidays - Insole Holiday Since the Pleistocene era, ie for 2 million years, nothing has changed The arch of the foot still bears the weight of the body of a person who walks, jumps, runs, dances and otherwise moves in space To reduce the load on their feet and comfort of movement, people began to use special inserts in their shoes, in honor of which a celebration was established July 14th is the Insole Festival The foot, which is called the second heart, has spring properties - it springs when walking There are more than 70 thousand nerve endings on the sole, which connect its surface with individual organs and areas of the body By influencing the foot in a certain way, it is possible to restore the bioenergetic activity of the entire human body In addition, proper distribution of weight during movement eases the load on the leg muscles and spine, joints and pelvic organs Initially, the insoles were made of scoop - thick leather 3-4 mm thick This material has good vapor permeability and wear resistance Such insoles absorb up to 50% of the sweat generated by the foot due to their high moisture capacity Today, in the manufacture of this essential part of shoes, leather, dermantin, special cardboard, natural or artificial felt are used Insoles help in the formation of the correct arch of the foot for children and are used to correct posture in adults The first orthoses were invented in the Netherlands in 1762 by the Dutch naturalist Petrus Camper In the 18th century orthopedic insoles were made from balsa wood Later, metal began to be used for their production At the end of the 19th century This shoe part began to be manufactured in the USA using plaster casts of the foot The technology did not allow taking into account all the nuances of the instep and bends of the foot Therefore, such orthopedic insoles have proven themselves poorly in use Development of science and technology in the twentieth century made it possible to begin producing orthotics made from modern materials that made the product elastic and wearing shoes comfortable To reduce the load on the feet and correct foot defects, shoe inserts made from balsa wood, artificial or natural leather, dense fabric and high-tech synthetic materials are used today Orthoses not only make walking easier for people with excess weight, arthritis, flat feet or hallux valgus, but also help combat injuries or curvature of the spine A regular insole is no less important, because creates a layer between the main material of the shoe and the foot Underneath there are stitched or glued parts of shoes, boots or boots Without an insole, these elements, their joints and seams will not be able to withstand the pressure of the foot and will begin to deform, which will lead to rapid wear of the shoes Special inserts with shock absorption make wearing it convenient and comfortable, like orthotics, preventing your legs from getting tired while walking Everyone who appreciates this important invention of mankind celebrates Insole Day on July 14th
