Did you know that our feet are one of the most sensory-rich parts of our body and that barefoot walking is essential for proprioceptive development? But, what is proprioceptive development you might ask? Well, proprioception is the sense that tells the body where it is in space. It relates to development of our posture, coordination and balance. Walking barefoot stimulates the proprioceptors, many of which are concentrated in the feet.
We all know that walking barefoot isnβt always possible for little ones, especially when we want to protect delicate little baby and toddler feet from external elements. Based on 7 years of research, Attipas are award winning, ergonomically designed shoes that allow for natural movement and development of the feet. As a mum, I want the best for my child’s all-round development. That is why Attipas is my shoe of choice.
