Feedback from Other Experts

Professor Rothbart's approach has received accolades from experts across the world.  Read what a personal physician to Presidents, top researchers and practitioners, are saying about his work.
  Personal physician to President John Kennedy and Lyndon B Johnson.  Author of the most authoritative textbook on Chronic Myofascial Pain.  Dr Travell stresses the importance of Prof/Dr Rothbart's work.

"I enjoyed attending your discussion at this year's annual AAPM meeting, linking feet to musculoskeletal pain.  I believe you have helped clarify the relationship between trigger points and foot function.  I find the foot structure you refer to as Primus Metatarsus {Supinatus} particularly insightful.  Your description of the elevation of the big toe has made me rethink my position."

Janet Travell MD

  Father of Modern Posturology, Founder of the French Association of Posturology, and the Author of the definitive textbook on Posturology.   Dr Gagey states that Professor Rothbart's proprioceptive therapy is very effective for eliminating chronic pain.

“I read your paper, dear Professor Rothbart.  Moreover I had the opportunity talking about it with Phillippe Villeneuve, the leader of the French podoposturology.  We agree completely with you on the postural efficiency of plantar information and, as you do, everyday we notice the surprising therapeutic efficiency of these techniques on our patients.  So we are on the same wavelength and your work interests us greatly.

I wish you good success.”

"After a severe accident my running career was severely jeopardized.  I went through a long period of rehabilitation.  This involved many failed orthotic interventions.  Then I was treated using Professor Rothbart's therapy.  The result is that I am now running again with far less pain."

Thank you Prof Rothbart

  Principle Investigator for the World Health Organization.   Dr Geogiou states that Professor Rothbart is a recognized expert in the elimination of chronic pain.

“I have been studying your {research} website and find your work quite fascinating and cutting edge.  I have always been a proponent of structure working closely with chiropractors, but this seems to go far beyond adjusting spinal subluxations.  Cranial distortions initiating in the feet is a very new concept!”

“I would certainly welcome you as an expert in your field where you can write a course which can then be placed onto the e-learning college site for many other practitioners to take so that your knowledge and methods can spread throughout the globe.”

"I first heard of Dr Rothbart in 1974.  His concepts on body mechanics in running made a lot of sense to me.  Using his insoles, I am able to run with less effort at a faster pace then I was able using other orthotics."
