Dr. Santopietro was invited to speak on Boston WBUR’s RadioBoston Program in January about so called “toning shoes”.

Boston based New Balance has been grappling with a lawsuit over the validity of their marketing claims that their toning shoes help to tighten up muscles in the lower extremities. WBUR explores the issue in detail with Dr. Santopietro weighing in to offer some of his views on these types of “rocker bottom” shoes.

Many of our patients are asking about these types of shoes and we have had patients coming in from complications arising from using this type of shoe.

Listen to the story on WBUR’s website and let us know what you think.
