 Learning to Walk
These days the feet of a typical city dweller rarely encounter terrain any more uneven
than a crack in the pavement. While that may not seem like a problem, it turns out that
by flattening our urban environment we have put ourselves at risk of a surprising
number of chronic illnesses and disabilities. Fortunately, the commercial market has
come to the rescue with a choice of products. Research into the idea that flat floors
could be detrimental to our health was pioneered back in the late 1960s in Long Beach,
California. Podiatrist Charles Brantingham and physiologist Bruce Beekman were
concerned with the growing epidemic of high blood pressure, varicose veins and deep-
vein thromboses and reckoned they might be linked to the uniformity of the surfaces
that we tend to stand and walk on.

The trouble, they believed, was that walking continuously on flat floors, sidewalks and
streets concentrates forces on just a few areas of the foot. As a result, these surfaces are
likely to be far more conducive to chronic stress syndromes than natural surfaces, where
the foot meets the ground in a wide variety of orientations. They understood that the
anatomy of the foot parallels that of the human hand - each having 26 bones, 33 joints
and more than 100 muscles, tendons and ligaments - and that modern lifestyles waste
all this potential flexibility.

Brantingham and Beekman became convinced that the damage could be rectified by
making people wobble. To test their ideas, they got 65 factory workers to try standing
on a variable terrain floor - spongy mats with varying degrees of resistance across the
surface. This modest irregularity allowed the soles of the volunteers' feet to deviate
slightly from the horizontal each time they shifted position. As the researchers hoped,
this simple intervention made a huge difference, within a few weeks. Even if people were
wobbling slightly, it activated a host of muscles in their legs, which in turn helped pump
blood back to their hearts. The muscle action prevented the pooling of blood in their
feet and legs, reducing the stress on the heart and circulation. Yet decades later, the
flooring of the world's largest workplaces remains relentlessly smooth. Earlier this year,
however, the idea was revived when other researchers in the US announced findings
from a similar experiment with people over 60. John Fisher and colleagues at the
Oregon Research Institute in Eugene designed a mat intended to replicate the effect of
walking on cobblestones*.

In tests funded by the National Institute of Aging, they got some 50 adults to walk on
the toots in their bare feet for less than an hour, three times a week. After 16 weeks,
these people showed marked improvements in mobility, and even a significant
reduction in blood pressure. People in a control group who walked on ordinary floors
also improved but not as dramatically. The mats are now available for purchase and
production is being scaled up. Even so, demand could exceed supply if this
footstimulating activity really is a 'useful nonpharmacological approach for preventing
or controlling hypertension of older adults, as the researchers believe. They are not
alone in recognising the benefits of cobblestones. Reflexologists have long advocated
walking on textured surfaces to stimulate so-called 'acupoints' on the soles of the feet.
They believe that pressure applied to particular spots on the foot connects directly to
particular organs of the body and somehow enhances their function. In China, spas,
apartment blocks and even factories promote their cobblestone paths as healthful
amenities. Fisher admits he got the concept from regular visits to the country. Here, city
dwellers take daily walks along cobbled paths for five or ten minutes, perhaps several
times a day, to improve their health. The idea is now taking off in Europe too.

People in Germany, Austria and Switzerland can now visit 'barefoot parks' and walk
along 'paths of the senses - with mud, logs, stone and moss underfoot. And it is not
difficult to construct your own path with simple everyday objects such as stones or
bamboo poles. But if none of these solutions appeal, there is another option. A new
shoe on the market claims to transform flat, hard, artificial surfaces into something like
uneven ground. 'These shoes have an unbelievable effect,' says Benno Nigg, an exercise
scientist at Calgary University in Canada.

Known as the Masai Barefoot Technology, the shoes have rounded soles that cause you
to rock slightly when you stand still, exercising the small muscles around the ankle that
are responsible for stability. Forces in the joint are reduced, putting less strain on the
system, Nigg claims.

Some of these options may not appeal to all consumers and there is a far simpler
alternative.

If the urban environment is detrimental to our health, then it is obvious where we

should turn. A weekend or even a few hours spent in the countryside could help
alleviate a sufferer's aches and pains, and would require only the spending of time.

However, for many modern citizens, the countryside is not as accessible as it once was
and is in fact a dwindling resource. Our concrete cities are growing at a terrifying rate -
perhaps at the same rate as our health problems.
