Thank you so much for this great information! I am very grateful to learn that there are products available to exercise proprioception. I'll be ordering one of the mats!

Thank you for the great video! I definitely feel I’m lacking in this area. I have a pair of topo athletic ultrafly 2 tennis shoes that I just got. Would I be able to get inserts for these that would fit/work? ( I also got a pair of correct toes that I want to try with them as well)

Thanks for the video, but you didn't mention, that a stroke can impair the said ability, doesn't it?

Do you have information for where to get the Kone-X mat?

With 200k nerve endings in the feet then would grounding via feet be better than the rest of the body, except maybe the hands?

My metatarsalgia is bad, for 6 years now. I've bought the correct toes, how socks, and low heel, wide toe box shoes and metatarsal pads. Not getting better. I live in Arizona, Do you have people here that work with your methods?

Hi doc, I have this problem with my right foot where i find it hard to extend my toes while at the same time plantar flexing my ankle. My toes want to either :
1) point straight up forming sort of a dip where the toes meet the foot or
2) if I try and force it they end up curling.
It becomes even harder when my knee is fully bent. My left foot performs this movement pretty well, unless i fully bend my knee then they curl a bit. Any exercises i can do to help with this. I bought correct toes a few days ago and hope to see results in a few months. thanks

where can this be purchased in the USA?

Is there a proper way to train for proprioception? For example, is the goal just to stand directly on things like stones and bumps? Or is there something else going on, like you’re learning to step between them?
