A member asked:
Does it bring good blood circulation, weight loss, and boost self healing to confront and prevent illnesses by electro stimulating your feet's sole?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No Evidence: I don't believe there is any evidence that electrical stimulation of your feet will improve your health. However there is some evidence of benefit of grounding, which is standing barefoot on the earth. Leather soled shoes may also help with grounding, but rubber soled shoes do not.
