Over the last decade, rocker shoes have been introduced to the world. They were developed to help with many podiatrist diagnosed issues. They can be beneficial for some, but you need to be concerned if you are using them for specific aliments or issues.
Rocker shoes are NOT helpful for....
Stability: If you have balance issues or experience vertigo rocker shoes can increase these issues. These shoes are very dangerous on ladders and other unstable surfaces and may increase the risk of injuries.
Excessive Pronation: If your ankles and feel roll in a lot and you're not wearing good orthodics you're asking for BIG trouble. This will cause more stress on your feet, knees, and hips and increase the risk of injury.
Heavy Lifting: If you lift heavy objects on a regular basis rocker shoes decrease the stable surface and increase your risk of injury.
Workout Shoes: These are NOT workout shoes. Rocker shoes are made to help you walk in a straight line. Any side-to-side movement should be avoided.
