Abstract
Disclosed is a shoe or the like insole of plastic material having a plurality of small protrusions extending from and forming an array of protrusions relative a surface of the insole. Within the array is a plurality, preferably for reflex protrusions of predetermined size, shape and location which provide areas of pressure massage and manipulation to the sole of a foot in order to secure benefits according to the science of reflexology. The protrusions are vertically unyielding and the insole is preferably of a relatively hard but flexible material such as polyethylene. The insoles are reversible in that the user may reverse the insoles between shoes thereby selecting the length of time the user's feet are subjected to the stimulation and the like otherwise provided.
