Did you know weak foot muscles can increase heel pain risk by changing your arch? 👣 What if activating those muscles changes how your foot handles every step?

Sports medicine researchers found foot muscle fatigue increased arch collapse significantly. This collapse is measured as navicular drop, a known heel pain risk factor 📉 That finding alone surprised many foot researchers worldwide.

Then it gets more interesting 👀 After just 4 weeks, targeted muscle activation improved arch height and balance. Foot stability improved without braces, orthotics, or rigid support.

EMG testing showed up to four-times higher muscle activation ⚡ That means small foot muscles can be trained more than most people expect. These muscles are usually ignored in foot pain care.

So why does this matter for EMS users? 🤔 EMS activates hard-to-engage muscles without impact or heavy loading. That makes muscle activation possible even with limited movement.

This research does not test EMS directly. But it clearly explains why muscle activation matters for foot pain 🧠 And why activating foot muscles may support better foot mechanics.
