The impairment of the horizontal is caused by elevation of the heel of the foot from the ground. Receptors in the soles of the feet provide a mapping of body orientation to the upright, and is identical to Mittelstaedt's idiotropic tendency.

Using flat shoes increases neurogenesis and leads to a decreased frequency of diseases of the nervous system.
