More than an insole
The theory and science behind tyfo are sound.
Turning your feet back on so that they perform as nature intended sounds ideal. So, why wouldn’t you give your give yourself the opportunity to be your best and to live a
healthier, stronger life?
It sounds too good to be true, right?
Well, the best thing we can do to convince you that it is true,
is for you to get the views of people who use tyfo. So, here are some stories from just some of our delighted tyfo users.
Dr Verena Sablotny
Dancer with 25 years of experience,
but with constant pains and injuries.
“As a passionate dancer with hip dysplasia, hip and knee pain were part of my everyday life. Most recently, it was only possible for me to remain able to dance with recurring therapeutic treatments.
This changed abruptly with the use of the tyfo insoles! Already with first use, hip and knee pain during my dance lessons disappeared the first time I wore the insoles.
I gradually increased the wearing time. Today, I wear the insoles for the entire time I dance - and I am pain-free.”
Enjoys hiking, lake swimming & skiing.
“I suffer from arthritis in my right foot and have heel spurs on my left. Lots of pain in feet and calves. Apart from pain, I have no feeling in my feet. I also suffer from really bad Plantar Fasciitis and have flat feet.
I was under treatment by a local specialist for 3 years.
My doctor recommended surgery to fix my problems, but I wasn’t keen. So I went to see Simon as a last resort. I tried tyfos and I was blown away that they worked so quickly!
My pain went from 10 to 2 after just a few days, my plantar problem improved dramatically after only 3 weeks and I’m now wearing them for 10 hours a day, I can’t believe the difference!"
Joanne Charles
Åke Rohlén
Ödsmål, Sweden.
“For a few months, I’ve been using the ‘black insoles’ (No.8), and they are addictive. I have a weak knee and some years back had knee surgery. Since starting to use the insoles, the strengthening of my foot muscles has improved my knee, and I’m confident in starting to run again, modestly. I had no idea that you could become addicted to insoles! After using the 8s a few times, the feet start to signal that it wants the simulation - every day.
You feel your feet when using, and after use, there is a feeling of well-being.”
Michelle Hume
Enjoys skiing, forest worker - walks 6-10 miles daily.
“When I first met Simon, I didn’t tell him that I really suffered from an autoimmune condition called CIPD, which gave me terrible chronic pain and numbness in both feet, toes and lower right leg. This also causes severe balance issues and muscle strength loss, resulting in frequent falls. I met with my neurologist, and he was pushing me towards surgery, and then I met Simon, and he suggested that I activate my feet. “It’s the speed of my improvement that surprised me. After just two days of wearing tyfo I was walking easier and could feel my toes.
After a month, no leg cramps, and my whole posture is better with more strength in my legs. Falling down is now a thing of the past.
Every night I was exhausted, but now every morning I’m totally energised and it’s because of these amazing insoles. Six years of numb feet and legs have gone!”

“My desire is to get more people to appreciate their feet and to regain that positive feeling of when we walk barefoot
on a sandy beach or through a grass field - I found this new brand, which, in my opinion offers a step in the right direction. The letters TYFO stand for Turn Your Feet On.
The name already suggests that this is not a
conventional (mostly) stabilising insert, but a
completely new concept.
The goal of tyfo insoles is to improve the health and
well-being of the feet and the entire body by activating the muscles and regulating the fascial system.
On the soles of our feet there is also a strong fascial tissue, the so-called Plantar Fascia, which is connected to the entire fascial system of the body (up to the skull). Due to the rolling movement, this important fascia gets a gentle massage at every step - with a variety of positive effects on the entire organism.
I recommend Tyfo insoles to most of my patients, and I have received highly positive feedback."
Peter Tanner
Enthusiastic Age-Group Triathlon Athlete.
“Triathletes are known for buying and testing anything new on the market straight away :) I immediately registered for the first Foot Boost treatment at Schumacher Sport in Lagenthal. After the first few minutes, I was impressed by Simon Skirrow’s professional treatment and explanation.
I now use the massage stick every day to activate the soles of my feet in the morning and evening, and I also use the insoles. I believe this was one of my cheapest and best investments in the last 20 years. Running feels completely different after just a few days (better). I’m looking forward to using the massage of the soles of the feet and the insoles intensively in the training camp in the following months.”
Ruth Wilson
PT4 Triathlon Champion - Para GB Elite Team - 6 Podium finishes
“A Parkinson’s diagnosis in 2009 took my self-belief away.
I was in pain, with swollen feet, and I couldn’t run. Becoming a triathlon Dualthon really helped me fight the disease and my symptoms, and I had great success, becoming British PT4 Triathlon Champion, amongst other triumphs, even with a fractured femur, but eventually I had to stop and even give up my job.
I couldn’t even wear shoes, as the pain was so severe, and I was fighting my own body all the time. I felt depressed.
By chance, on my last day in the running store where I worked, Simon came in to talk about tyfo. I explained my difficult situation, and he immediately asked me to
test his new insoles. He stressed that I should start slowly and wear them for only 1-2 hours a day. However, I liked the feeling and pushed much harder, wearing them
for at least 4 hours a day. After 3 days, I could really feel my feet and toes again. 5 days later, I ran 5 miles, no pain, no swelling, felt great. I can wear shoes again,
and I’m even planning my first half-Ironman!”
"Activation of Mechanoreceptor systems is critical to train, monitor, react and engage our muscular system to optimise motor skills."

"Since I combine custom orthotics with my tyfos
my calf cramps have gone and right knee pain
has too."

"I am 85 years old, have had horrible back pain for 35 years or more, seen many doctors /have tried many treatments, nothing worked, but after 2 weeks of wearing tyfo I am now finally pain free,
its a miracle."
Patrice Berhnard

"I am a big hiker, 10-12 big Alps walks every year, always had calf cramps before and after these walks, my local shop recommended tyfo and now my cramps have stopped."

"Heel spurs,ball of foot pain and horrible tiredness have all gone since using TYFO's."
Dominique Schaffeu
"Since my ACL surgery, I've had constant, keen pain, and only 85% leg extension, so my training has been very tough. Simon suggested I try the medium Tyfo and after only a few weeks I#ve nog got 100% and zero pain, it's amazing."
Fabienne Belanger
"My sister has problems with achilles tendon pain, and just went for a longer walk the other day with TYFO and she said, it was amazing how long she was able to walk without pain."
Iren Rauber
"They feel very good after running, also during running is a good feeling, No hard or tired calves anymore."

"Just a quick note to let you know that your products are fantastic. I can highly recommend your products."

"I normally get badly aching feet after 2km of walking. After starting to wear tyfos I can walk 3+km without any aching at all."
Monika
"I run every day on the treadmill and stop once I've burned 500 calories, usually takes 32.30 mins, after wearing the TYFO for a week, the treadmill stopped at 29,35 !! And the next day it stopped at 28,52. These are fantastic."
Alan Vickers
"Having been plagued with a hot spot on my right foot for many years, I came to the conclusion that wider shoes would be the solution. In many ways, it was a fix; however, eventually the right foot would still go numb. Upon meeting Simon, I soon discovered that the width of the shoe is a band-aid to a bigger problem: my feet have just simply stopped functioning, and that they are indeed just “switched off”. The TYFO insole has given me a whole new perspective as to the function of my feet, grounding me in ways I had not thought possible. The activation points, to begin with, feel painful on the soles of the feet. Within three days and just 20 minutes a day, I was able to wear them for as long as I wanted. What I have found from the activation points is that my posture is taller, I feel like, and it looks like I walk taller. My balance when I have no shoes on is improved as well, and when I have cycling shoes on, I can feel the bike's movement more under my feet, and this is key, as a former World Cup mountain bike downhill racer, I can feel what the bike is doing under me, thus improving my position on the bike to improve traction. We talk about being grounded, the TYFO insole does this and improves sporting performance, take my word for it. David Hemmings, Former GB Professional Cyclist."

"I was suffering from water in my legs & my physiotherapist recommended I try tyfos. I wear them at home for 1-2 hours at first. I felt the points intensely at the beginning, but now I can tolerate them as long as I want.
My experience: I no longer have water in my legs. In bed, my legs twitch less before sleep. I have better posture, strengthened in the back and chest area. In hiking boots, I walk light-footed through the mountain landscape because with my tyfos fitted, my Hallux no longer hurts."
