Our mission was to create a product
that would almost immediately improve your sense of movement and stimulate
an increase in the ground forces you naturally generate so that walking /running faster/further or performing your chosen activity at a higher level is easier than ever before.
Your feet have a built-in “speaker system” (called mechanoreceptors) that is embedded inside your nerve cells, muscles and skin. Its job is to transmit simple messages that occur when we stand or move throughout the entire body. These messages help your muscles to be more efficient.
Currently, this highly important speaker system, which influences all our muscle function, is deactivated (without tyfo).
Human movement can be greatly influenced if positive messages are transmitted via this speaker system to our muscles; however, without activation, it's almost impossible to achieve higher muscle function or the highest performance possible without a serious risk of injury.
tyfo is the only brand that activates and stimulates these mechanoreceptors to create a higher muscle performance,
which is why we call our new product tyfo Muscle Activators.
Dome Technology™
Surface texture domes activate key receptors
in your feet. Activation increases natural foot movement and builds core foot strength for healthier feet and a healthier life.
After 3-4 weeks, your feet will be ready for a higher level of stimulation.
The tyfo team asked why it should always be that most shoes are mass-produced based on one foot shape and offer little or no personal foot activation technologies. Your feet are the foundation of all your movement, and strong, healthy foot muscles are the key to unlocking stronger, faster movement and higher levels of performance
The Tyfo team asked why it should always be that most shoes are mass-produced based on one foot shape
and offer little or no personal foot activation technologies.
We know that it’s critical for good health that our feet are ‘in tune’ with the rest of our nervous system and that our brain can receive and send meaningful messages to our feet. Based on emerging science over the last 20 years, tyfo is a revolution in how we think about footwear design
and the role of the foot in human movement.
Check out the tyfo Science section for links to the academic research papers that inspired our product.
The foot is a major sensory organ with over 30 mechanoreceptors designed by evolution. Activating these receptors is critical to unlocking higher levels of performance and was the inspiration behind tyfo Dome Technology™
The simple action of stimulation to the plantar foot should also be viewed as a preventative exercise, whereby stimulation sends positive signals to our whole posterior muscle chain via the fascia, which nourishes and encourages muscle growth and positive feelings, making everyday life easier, less tiring and less stressful.
TYFO ACTIVATION SELECTION LIST :
Muscle Activator 3
Provides our softest stimulation effect from one activation point -
This will build strength over time. Once you have adapted in approximately 6-8 weeks, you can then increase the level of stimulation by purchasing another model.
Provides our medium-strength stimulation effect and has 8 activation points - this stimulates at a higher level than models 3 & 5 and so accelerates the rate at which you can improve and strengthen. This model suits narrow sports and casual shoes.
Provides our softest stimulation but has 8 activation points,
so the effect is higher than model 3.
Provides our medium strength stimulation from 8 larger activation points than model 4, which is also more suited to wider feet and wider shoes.
Provides a stronger, more intense stimulation than models
3 - 6 above. This suits wearers of tyfos numbers 4 and 6 after
6 months OR for low-sensitivity feet who have adapted to model
4 or 6 within a few weeks of use for a minimum of 6 hours
every day.
The Game Changer - 4 purposes in 1 design
Muscle Activator 8
A world's first and truly unique product that stimulates not only muscles and tendons but also promotes new skin sensations across different areas of your feet and plantar soft tissue.
This model offers our firmest and highest level of stimulation and is ideal for quick bursts pre- or post-activity. Perfect for priming your body before activity or rejuvenating your feet at the end of a long session.
This design is mapped to our feet and cleverly and unconsciously resets our stance and balance, promotes stronger lateral weight-bearing, promotes higher large-toe engagement, and stimulates plantar skin and deeper-level muscles and tendons. Must be worn with socks to start with and limited to 30 minutes for the first few days; this will quickly become the product that starts to disperse stresses within your whole muscle chain and fascia - you will “Feel The Difference” in a short period of time, but exactly when is different for all of us.
