Fun Foot Facts

The ROCKER BAR is a longer medtatarsal bar shaped with considrable convexity and can help take more pressure off the MP joints than a standard external metatarsal bar. This bar can be sued to relieve metatarsal pain, quicken or shorten the gait cycle, or assist dordiflexion. A rigid rocker may relieve hallux rigidus and problems caused by limited motion of the ankle.
